street hawker
Curbside goods seller
A street hawker is a vendor who sells goods in public spaces, typically calling out to attract customers.
Unlike shopkeepers with fixed locations, hawkers move through streets or set up temporary stalls, selling everything from food to household items: Street hawkers lined the market square, shouting prices.
The term appears more in British and international English than American.
