Abstract

Street vending is a universal phenomenon and is primarily seen in all countries. The people working in this area get low wages, which makes it easy for them to enter unskilled labour and be self-employed. It provides self-employment, removes poverty, and improves the people's standard of living. This study mainly focuses on the standard of living of roadside food vendors in the Tiruchirappalli district. The researcher selected 60 sample respondents by using a simple random sampling method. It is found that there is a significant difference between monthly income and quality of life of food street vendors. It is suggested that the street vendors must register as per the provisions of The Street Vendors (Protection of Livelihood and Regulation of Street Vending) Act, 2014.
