Abstract:
Nyeri town boasts of informal street food vendors found almost in every street, offering products from
indigenous to trendy foods. During evening hours the street food operators compete for the limited street
space with the town publics. The design and the size of the town’s streets trail the increasing informal street
food vendors and the growing urban community. This poster highlights the effects of the informal street food
vendors’ location, products and operating time on the urban community in Nyeri town
