Dear Mr. Pope,

Thank you for your FOI request, reference 116674. Lambeth, Street Care
Team issues three types of Street Trading Licence:

1. Tables & Chairs License - for seating on the public pavement outside
restaurants, bars, cafés, pubs and clubs.

There are no licenses of this type in force in Electric Avenue at present.

2. Shop Front Licence - for the display of goods on the pavement, outside
of the premises where the goods are sold.

Only two licenses of this type are in force in Electric Avenue at present:

o SW Food Store, 34-36 Electric Avenue is licensed to display Fruit and
Vegetables.
o Wing Tai Supermarket, 13 Electric Avenue is licensed to display
Groceries and Vegetables.

3. Market Pitch Licence - for street vending from a designated market
pitch.

There are 39 designated pitches in Electric Avenue. Of these 37 are
currently permanently licensed, and two pitches (pitch 13 and pitch 31)
are regularly licensed on a temporary basis.

However, please note that a number of the premises in Electric Avenue have
an area outside of the premises and adjacent to the public pavement, which
is land belonging to the premises and not part of the public highway. Such
land may currently be in use to display goods without the requirement of a
Shop Front Licence.
