Summary
Street entrepreneurship is a centuries-old phenomenon that predates the development of the city. Street entrepreneurship has flourished as a profession (Bromley, 2000) Travelling entrepreneurs marketed their products in communities by walking from household to home during the ancient and mediaeval periods. South Korea used this strategy, creating systems that ensure street vendors are identified using method leads, updating street hawking and rendering it a formally enforceable sales mechanism This demonstrated to be a watershed moment in South Korea’s development, and it might be for Nigeria if embraced. Because of the vagueness of laws and regulatory organisations’ operations, street vendors’ actions in emerging countries like Nigeria appear to be mainly beyond the official restrictions Street vendors market their products along significant thoroughfares within municipalities, and they spend a variety of fees to both government agents and unofficial tax inspectors (Uchenna & Johanna, 2014). The study examined the effect of street entrepreneurship transformation on SMEs’ performance, explicitly emphasizing the operators in Ilorin metropolis
