Abstract: A street vendor is mostly defined as a person who offers goods for sale to the civic without having a stable built-up arrangement from where he sells goods. Street vendors may be stationary in the sense that they occupy a space on the pavements or other public/ private spaces or, they are mobile in the sense that they move from place to place by carrying their wares on push handcarts or in carriers on their heads. Therefore, the term ‘street vendors’ includes stationary as well as mobile vendors and it incorporates all other local/ regional specific terms used to describe them. The terms ‘street vendor’ and ‘hawker’ also have the same meaning and they have often been used interchangeably. There is a considerable increase in the number of street vendors in major Asian cities. In India, the National Policy for Urban Street Vendors/ Hawkers denotes that street vendors constitute approximately 2 per cent of the population of a metropolis. The total number of street vendors in the country is assessed at around 10 million. This figure is predicted to upswing even further. The proportion of women in street vending is higher than that of men in most cities of the region. Street trade is almost rampant and a source of employment and income for many urban dwellers throughout the world. However, in most countries, it is unorganised and unaccounted in national economic statistics. This resulted in the lack of accurate estimates of the number of street vendors. Further, there had been minimal research in the area of street vending in the past. The negligence of street vending activities had been for long resulted in the lack of understanding of their contribution to the National Economy, their socio-economic and working conditions and above all the challenges faced by street vendors in the form of bribes, harassment, evictions, confiscation of merchandise and relocation, due to restrictive policies and regulations of governments all over the world. The objective of the study is to analyse the major challenges of women’s street vendors based on their mode of business and type of business. The study is based on both primary and secondary data.
