Dube said informal traders should register with the city council for them to get licences to operate from designated sites. He said:

All those who are interested in trading in the authorised sites are advised to visit the City of Bulawayo Vending Offices at the former Dugmore Clinic Offices along Basch Street for registration and licensing.

The City encourages trading at designated sites in terms of Municipal by-laws.

This fosters peace, cleanliness and control of all informal trading activities through the associations which have Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with the City.
