Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to identify the factors associated with the fruit vendor's relationship with families and relatives.
Methodology: I conducted this study with a quantitative research approach and executed random sampling techniques to collect data from the field.
Results: The study showed that married fruit vendors, compared to unmarried ones, were .277 times more likely to have relations with family members (OR =.277, 95% CI,.086–.887). In addition, fruit vendors whose spouses were illiterate had good relations with family members (OR = 4.95, 95% CI, 1.26–19.39). However, fruit vendors who lived in a pacca house (OR =.208, 95% CI =.053–.819), had a monthly income of BDT ≤20,000 (OR =.261, 95% CI =.088–.778), and had no savings (OR = 8.61, 95% CI = 1.85–40.07), were likely to maintain family relations. In the case of relations with relatives, the owner of the house (OR =.147, 95% CI =.049–.440), the local fruit seller (OR = 8.26, 95% CI = 1.11-61.16), having a monthly income of BDT≤20,000 (OR = 7.96, 95% CI = 1.52-41.57), and having no savings (OR =.269, 95% CI =.079–.922) influenced it.
Conclusion: GO-NGO concerns can be useful for fruit vendors, particularly who are more vulnerable to family issues.
