| 520 | |a "Clashes between vendors and authorities have become a common feature of our society. It is really a fact that vending has come with it some undesirable effects such a chaotic and disorderly business practices. Nevertheless, we cannot afford to turn a blind eye on vending or even eradicate it, especially when taking into account the fact that our employment levels are on the minimum side. In fact, most families have been sustained through vending during economic hard times of our society. This situation whereby the relationship between vendors and the local authorities is reminiscent of a 'cat and mouse affair' is unsustainable and does not benefit anyone. High costs are incurred in carrying out the fights, property at times is destroyed, there are injuries and in some rare cases fatalities and arrests are made. This book sought to offer practical solutions of how vending can get organised and by systematic much to the benefit our society socially and economically. Lessons were taken from other cases the world over. Entrepreneurs, the policy maker, the civic society and students will find this book much enlightening and interesting. Its contribution adds much value towards sustainable efforts of transforming Zimbabwe's economy and society to a progressive one"--Back cover. | ||
