Description
- ‘Stationary street trading’ means the exercise of street trading activity by a trader always at the same fixed place designated and delimitated by the municipality which has granted the relevant authorisation.
- Authorisations are granted to natural persons taking part in calls issued by municipalities. The authorisations, designating the relevant places, are granted by municipalities after issuing a call. They are intended for natural persons registered in the Register of Farmers and Agricultural Holdings provided for in Law 3874/2010 (Government Gazette, Series I, No 151). Authorisation holders are selected in accordance with the points awarded to them on the basis of the criteria laid down in Article 16 of Law 4849/2021 (Government Gazette, Series I, No 207).
