peddlers
Itinerant goods vendors
Peddlers are people who sell goods, typically by traveling from place to place rather than from a fixed shop.
The word often carries connotations of small-scale or informal commerce: peddlers hawking their wares on street corners.
Figuratively, peddlers spread ideas or influence: peddlers of misinformation, influence peddlers.
The spelling pedlars appears in British English.
