Food Safety Day 2023
Why are street vendors agents of food safety?
They are the ones selling accessible food to the most vulnerable communities, especially in urban areas. Despite this central role, the vendors are often subjected to violence and harassment in their workplace. The lack of labour rights can have a detrimental effect on the quality of the food and the service. Caring about food safety means caring about the health and safety of street vendors, too!
