Day in the Life of a NYC FRUIT VENDOR!
20,178
Published 2018-07-18
In NYC, we get our fresh fruit from fruit guys on the street...
But who are these guys?
Where is their fruit from?
Why is it so cheap?
What do they do all day?
We were curious, so we spent a day with Liton, a Bangladeshi immigrant, to find out what it takes to get that fruit into your hands.
What’s your biggest takeaway from this video? Share in the comments!

i really want to see this vendor a millionaire one day because he is working so hard and hustling, he deserves more than that, thank you for sharing the experience.

Moved to NY last month and had to luck it up! Never understood why people would but from them, everything makes sense now. I will start buying from them too
-
These videos most certainly brightened up my day! First started watching yesterday when I saw your Ramadan video and fell in love with the content and diversity!
-
This is so beautiful to watch. Thank you for making Luton's day.

Well made video! I am also curious about 1. what happens during the cold season 2. what time he ends the job - what does he do with the leftover fruits (which need to be sold on time or immediately) such things!

What are the odds?!?! I was just think Hrmmm is anybody else curious about these fruit vendor stalls and you guys did it!!! This is such a humbling video. I just moved to NYC, moved out on my own and I don’t know how much a comb of bananas should be and now that I know and I have insight, I would never feel guilty again if I buy a fruit from the vendors ♥️ thanks guys, owe you guys a subscribe!

May Allah bless him and his family and of course his business

I just watched this video. Is Liton still a fruit vendor? If so, is he still at the same location? I hope he is doing well these years later!
-
dope video
-
Awesome video. I wonder - what do they do with the fruit that they don't sell at the end of the day?
-
Thank brother
-
good job brother
-
Awesome video! I wonder if this guy is still selling fruits 4 years later!
-
Is he still there? I wonder does anyone know
-
Great video, thanks a lot ! Do they have to pay a license to the city of Manhattan? Is anybody allowed to do it? May I become a fruit vendor? Did you try to find out if there is any mafia they have to pay for keeping their spot ?
