Street trade
Under street trading means the peddling of certain goods on public ways , streets , certain places or in pedestrian areas .
The street vendor operates a travel trade according to § 55 GewO and requires an official permit in the form of a travel trade card , but is not subject to the regulations for standing trades if he is exclusively active in this way.
Even if it is not easy to differentiate it from sales in the kiosk , ice cream trucks, fruit stands and fast food stalls can be assigned to street trade.

There are special regulations for certain products. According to the Milk and Fat Act, the state authorities can determine that milk and milk products may only be sold in certain districts in the context of street trading . In order to promote healthy competition, several milk traders should be able to sell the products in one district.
Street trading can lead to increased use of the land and thus raise questions and problems of common use or public order . For reasons of tradition, aesthetics and urban development , it is judged differently and is more widespread in American cities such as New York City or San Francisco than in Berlin , where it shaped the cityscape more strongly in the 1920s than it is today.
The competent authorities can generally prohibit street trading in certain areas. These include bridges and overpasses or parks and green spaces. Selling in front of schools, churches and hospitals can also be prohibited.
