The very first Mobile Vendor Plaza brought a variety of food options to a parking lot in Downtown Richmond on Saturday, Sept. 21.

It also brought the promise of more markets just like it to come.

The market was held in the lot at 1401 Macdonald Ave., near the BART parking garage. It will open every Thursday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., offering foods such as tacos, pupusas, sandwiches, and also refreshing drinks, according to the city.

Announced in August, the new market is a partnership between the City of Richmond and Richmond Farmers Market. It is the first of the Mobile Vendor Program, which aims to provide a place for sidewalk vendors to conduct business in a regulated manner.

All mobile vendors can participate for free, but vendors must be registered with the City with a Special Business Activity Permit. For more about the program, go to https://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/4685/COMING-SOON—Mobile-Vendor-Market.
