A Deeper Look | The life of a Street Vendor

On episode three of A Deeper Look, we engage 26-year-old Given Mhlanga,  a vendor on the streets of Johannesburg. Mhlanga is one of many informal traders who have left their homes to try to make a living in the big city. He says he has worked for someone before but prefers running his own business. "I worked at a construction company as a labourer, every month end it was a different story when it came to salaries...it wasn’t for me...the work was too hard and exhausting." #ADeeperLook For more news, visit sabcnews.com and also #SABCNews on all Social Media platforms.
