How easy is it to become a street vendor in hawaii?|108930

I would like to sell fruit on the beach in hawaii and would like to get an idea of the process in getting street vendor permit for this Business.

It isn_t easy at all, and pretty much cannot be done. It_s not like many cities, you can_t get a permit for that sort of thing, especially on public property. All the concession licenses are given out for multi-year leases.

I don_t think it is a good idea. The lifeguards will probably chase you off the beach. If you get a permit, the lifeguards are not going to like you. Selling fruit on the beach (Waikiki), nah no go.

Maybe on the street and in the malls along Waikiki, but there are already a bunch of people selling something. To rent your space . . . expensive.

don_t try, you_ll fail miserably... sorry....
