The old-school push cart is making a comeback at Reading Terminal Market. Driven by empty store fronts and a desire to attract new vendors into the space, the stalwart shopping destination is doing just that with equipment that had been set aside by progress.

Reading Terminal general manager AnujGupta and others approached vendors to fill gaps at the market, like LUHV, a Hatboro family business that now sells grab-and-go vegan food like salads, soups, and award-winning veggie burgers at Reading Terminal three days a week, writes Allison Steele for philly.com.

“We always wanted to come here,” said Facundo Lucci, whose Argentine immigrant parents have owned restaurants in the Philadelphia suburbs for more than 20 years. “We just thought it was something you couldn’t even dream of achieving.”

Founded by Lucci and his parents Daniel and Silvia in 2016, LUHV has a bistro in Hatboro and sells its products in grocery stores in Pennsylvania and four other states.  Since opening at Reading Terminal in November, Facundo Lucci said, business has been brisk, with the vegan tuna salad, made from garbanzo beans, turning out to be a best seller. Eventually, Lucci hopes to operate a full kitchen and serve more made-to-order food.
