Contribuição da bicicleta de carga nas actividades comerciais de carácter informal na cidade de Quelimane

Abstract

In the city of Quelimane, the incapacity of the formal sector to absorb the existing workforce has led to the emergence and proliferation of a multiplicity of informal activities, which ultimately serve as a source of survival for those who practice them and their dependents. The practice of most of these activities relies on the contribution of the cargo bicycle, from the transport of traders and the products they sell, the emergence of employment-generating activities and the reduction of prices for some products. These activities are mainly distributed along roads, their intersections and mainly in regulatory markets. The flexibility of the cargo bike in accompanying merchants and the products they sell is the main reason for the use of this means by practitioners, most of whom are male, married and with a certain level of education.
