Centrust Helps Food Truck Business Start in Chicago

Updated: Jun 2, 2023


For us, happiness is family. Alex Robinson, Tyler Cullerton and Neal Bassett have been the best of friends for over 15 years. We know you don’t have to be blood to be family and have always connected over of love of great food.


For them, happiness was being different and creative. This brought the attorney-father along with the social media marketer to change career paths(along with their other co-founders) with their mission to “bring people together through the love of food and serving the best lobster roll in the country. Creativity was something that they also needed in a lender and thus began their relationship with Centrust Bank. Starting with one lobster food truck the Happy Lobster expanded to Austin Texas, the French Market in downtown Chicago and the newest addition a truck to serve the catering community. Centrust provided financing for all equipment, trucks and working capital helping the Happy Lobster achieve the number 1 truck in Chicago, Number 3 Lobster Roll in the city of Chicago and the top 10 in the country according to Yelp. None of this would have been possible without the backing and guidance of Centrust Bank.
