Ford has a lot of econoline vans that are relatively worth the money. they will suit any and all purposes that you would need for a catering server or service.

I would suggest the Chevy Express series of full-size vans. They're very common in business fleets such as caterers and repairmen. They come in a variety of sizes and configurations to suit your needs, and they can be customized with logos and such. I'm a Chevy guy myself, so I prefer these over the Ford E-Series vans.

That would all depend on the size of your business. Get the largest vehicle with the most economical maintenance costs available to you. It is always better to have extra space than not enough. Chevrolet and Ford make some large cubic inch refrigerated vans that may accommodate your businesses needs.

A catering van should be low to the ground for easy lifting of items and have maximum interior storage/room for hauling supplies to and from your catering site. Large rear doors and a side sliding door to move items in and out of the van would be ideal.

The selection of vans is small, you'll want to choose one that combines the space needed to support your business and provides smooth ride. If you choose a full sized van, one that has a 150, 1500 etc suspension rating will do. The 250/2500's are stronger, but stiffer and you will need a smoother ride for transporting food.

I would suggest either the Ford Econoline series, the Ford Transit series, or the Chevrolet Express series. Each is geared toward business vehicle use, and your dealer can help you customize it for the internal shelving and such you'll need. Beyond that, my advice is to price them in your area and go with the cheapest.
