Fruit stand

Fruit stand

A fruit stand is a primarily open-air business venue that sells seasonal fruit and many fruit products from local business. They also sell vegetables and various processed items derived from fruit. The fruit stand is a small business structure that is primarily run as an independent sole proprietorship, with very few franchises or branches of larger fruit stand conglomerates.

Fruit stands are often symbolic of small-scale agricultural areas.
