WILMINGTON Over the last year, 21-year-old Savannah Logan watched the popularity of food trucks and mobile drinkeries take off in the midst of Covid-19 and decided there was no better time than the present to follow through on her dream of starting a mobile coffee unit. After purchasing a 1999 horse trailer, she and her boyfriend, Wesley Regnier, began building out Lucky Coffee.
First, they had to travel to South Carolina to find the wheels. Logan purchased it Mar. 30 from the cushion of savings she had collected over the last two years while managing Lucky Joe’s Coffee. She clarified, however, her trailer’s name isn’t a spinoff on the local brick-and-mortar. Rather, it’s an homage to her first dog, Lucky.
