Vendors in an urban context can be understood as suppliers of any goods or services. The streets, storefronts, and markets are teeming with vendors that grab people's immediate attention with sweet words, strategically placed visuals, or music.

This book captures these vendors ‘in the moment,’ in their environment, doing their part in the existing urban fabric. The existence of these vendors is crucial in understanding the make up of a city, as they provide daily life experiences against the backdrop of the urban environment.
