SLC27-W5 | A One-Day Street Journalist: The Struggle Of Street Hawkers.
Assalamu alaikum friends,
This is @jannat7
From Bangladesh
Today I will share with you all the review of a shop on the side of the road. It is a hawker business. This shop sells various kinds of things. And this shop is located on Basurhat Road, Daganbhuiyan, Feni. If you want to come here from anywhere, you have to come to Daganbhuiyan first. When you come to Daganbhuiyan, if you go a little on Basurhat Road, you will see this shop on one side of the road. Although these are not always in one place. But I found this shop here after wandering around in different places. Since these are roadside hawker businesses, they are not always in one place. However, the shop is very beautiful and well-organized. This shop is new. Our daily necessities are being sold in this shop.
01 What places did you visit and what types of hawker businesses did you review?
I have been to many places. And I reviewed the hawker business today. Where almost everything we need is being sold. A man is selling these in a small car. And here different types of glasses, spoons, small and large boxes, knives, water mugs, stands for keeping pots, baskets and many more are being sold. But these are very useful to us every day. And such shops are very important. From which we can buy such things. Such businesses are seen a lot these days. The person who runs this shop is very good. When I see these shops, I sometimes try to buy different things.
02 Have you ever bought anything from these stores? Show pictures + videos and show their prices.
Yes, I bought a few things from this shop. Since this shop has almost everything we need, every thing is very necessary. But I bought the things that I needed the most. I bought a Spice jar, a vegetable knife 🔪, and a water glass from this shop. Actually, all the things here are very beautiful. So I wanted to buy everything. But I was happy to buy the things that I needed the most. The price of every thing in this shop was not very high and affordable. That's why I felt very happy to buy it.

|---|---|---|
| Water glass | 30 tk | 2 |
| vegetable knife 🔪 | 50 tk | 3.3 |
| Spice jar | 40 tk | 2.7 |
03 How do they face sidewalk occupation, eviction or police harassment?
Since these types of shops are set up on the sidewalk, the sidewalk is almost completely occupied. However, those who set up these shops face many problems. In particular, they face a lot of police harassment. Because the police always remove the shops on the sidewalk. Or they demand a lot from them. Especially, they ask for a lot of money. Also, many people come to them for donations. They have a lot of difficulty in dealing with these things. They cannot manage their shops well because of this. Many people come to occupy the sidewalk. Because of which they are always very afraid. They worry a lot about when there will be a problem.
04 What are their biggest challenges and hopes for continuing this business?
Yes, such traders face many challenges to continue this business. Especially in this type of footpath business, there are many competitors. They are even afraid of losing their place. This is also a big challenge. Because no one wants to lose such a place. Decorating and managing their shop beautifully among various competitors becomes a bit difficult for them. Because not everyone gets all kinds of facilities. Such traders have a lot of hopes for such businesses. They have a lot of hopes for decorating their family beautifully, giving a small local shop, doing business safely. However, not everyone can fulfill that hope.
