dc.description.abstractSelling food in public spaces is an important alternative to formal employment and has been part of the urban landscape for centuries. In choice of business location, the main reason cited by respondents of the scoping survey was the presence of greater numbers of customers at the chosen site. The informal and portable nature of many of the businesses suggests the degree of mobility to be another factor. In terms of municipal officials and local leaders, the vulnerability of street vendors can be taken advantage of. Vendors lack legal security, financial services, and have low bank enrolment. Findings from the survey are presented.en
