According to Hai Chau District People's Committee, the investor equipped itself with sales cars and containers (kiosks), participated in the auction of locations for placing and parking 12 kiosks and 15 sales cars. Of which, the sales cars are allowed to sell alcoholic beverages but collect and treat wastewater themselves, not discharging it into the environment.

Sales cars are parked close to the sidewalk in an area of ​​10 x 2.5 m, tables and chairs are purchased according to the model, arranged in an area of ​​10 x 5.5 m.

Interspersed with the sales cars are 10 x 4 m (20 feet container) kiosks, self-decorated according to the business plan, ensuring aesthetics and safety in stormy weather.

To ensure fairness for businesses, Hai Chau District does not allow vending machines to be placed in the walking street.

In addition, investors also pay sidewalk and road rental fees of 6 million VND/month/kiosk, 6.7 million VND/month/vehicle for sale. However, when the authorities proposed to end the pilot scheme, the organizations and individuals dismantled it themselves and were not compensated for damage to the facilities, including damage caused by natural disasters.

Mr. Le Tu Gia Thanh, Chairman of Hai Chau District People's Committee, said that the locality's key task is to develop a night-time economic project, in which the Han River is considered the "living room" of the city. Therefore, Hai Chau District determined that all activities along the Han River create an aesthetic worthy of its central district status.
