Getúlio Pereira da Silva sells traditional sweets in Brazil

Getúlio Pereira da Silva, a street vendor known by his professional moniker ‘Raimundo’, sells traditional coconut sweets (cocadas) from the Vale do Jequitinhonha region on public transit in Brazil.

Operating late into Sunday nights at the Guilhermina-Esperança station, Getúlio uses rhythmic marketing to attract passengers. He describes the challenges of informal labor, including the need to support three children and manage various financial pressures such as rent and debt.
