street vending

Street vending involves individuals or small businesses selling goods or services directly to customers in public spaces, such as sidewalks, markets, or busy street corners. It provides a flexible, accessible way for entrepreneurs to reach customers without the need for a permanent storefront. Vendors often sell food, beverages, clothing, accessories, or other items, contributing to local economy and community vibrancy. While it offers economic opportunities and enhances urban life, street vending may face regulation and zoning challenges to balance public space use and commercial activity.
