Abstract

Street vending plays a crucial role in urban economies by providing employment and affordable goods to the public. However, political and regulatory environments significantly influence their business operations. This study examines the economic, social, and political factors affecting street vendors, with a focus on licensing, taxation, access to credit, public perception, law enforcement, and urban planning. The findings highlight key challenges faced by street vendors and propose policy recommendations to improve their working conditions.
