Downtown Vending

There are various vending opportunities in the Downtown Business District for both novelty and food items. Each program requires vendors to obtain a permit.

Downtown Food Truck Vending

The Downtown Mobile Food Truck Program gives local food trucks a way to serve food downtown. View the rules and submit an application.

Downtown Mobile Food Vending

Two programs exist for downtown street level food vendor permits. Alamo Plaza only allows the sale of raspas and snow cones. The Central Businesses District allows the sale of hotdogs, raspas, and pre-packaged food.

River Walk Vending

The Center City Development & Operations Department (CCDO) offers two vending programs. Learn about the application process and key dates for both.
