Tea Vendor and selling of cigarettes are the most common sole proprietorship business of Bangladeshi people. People of all age are engaged in this type of small business where there are no need of any registration, experience or any educational background. The main advantage of sole proprietorship is the limited capital and limited risk and these two advantages made sole proprietorship business more popular. Although it is a positive sign that people are trying hard to be employed and earn. But absence of proper policies and rules are turning these positive wheel into a negative force as open selling of CIGARATTES are encouraging more people especially the children to do smoking openly.
