Vendedores Haitinos en Caracas

Haitian ice-cream vendor Alusme, 38, who has been living in Venezuela for two years, sells ice cream to a family at the Catia Boulevard in Caracas. Vendors, who take a 26 percent commission on whatever they sell, can earn up to double the Venezuelan minimum wage, and as much as three times what they could earn back in Haiti. The roughly 30,000-strong Haitian community in Venezuela have a near-monopoly on selling ice-cream in the streets.
