El Jadida Bans Mobile Cafes, Sparking Debate on Urban Street Vendors

Tuesday 2 July 2024, by Prince

The authorities of El Jadida have decided to ban the activity of mobile cafes in certain specific areas of the city.

The president of the municipal council of El Jadida took this measure after being seized by a complaint from the owners of cafes and restaurants in the province who believe they are suffering from unfair competition from mobile cafes, pointing out that the latter do not pay taxes and practice reduced prices.

This ban measure concerns all activities related to the sale of coffee, drinks and fast food by vehicles with two, three and four wheels. The local authorities will ensure the proper implementation of this decision.
