The restart of the "market stall economy" is supported by the broad masses, but the accompanying impact is also viewed from a dialectical perspective, and its development directly affects all aspects of the city. This article uses interviews and fill‐in questionnaires to study the situation of Bengbu's stalls and finds that the existence of stalls in the city is essential for alleviating employment pressure, increasing the income of low‐income groups, meeting the diverse needs of the city at different levels, and showing the city's unique charm and humanities. Customs, ease social conflicts, and promote social harmony are all of great significance. However, while seeing the positive side, we also noticed the problems of occupation of roads, obstruction of traffic, environmental pollution, food hygiene and safety, and impact on public safety. This article proposes reasonable planning and optimization of management, ensuring quality and strengthening supervision from the perspective of the government. These four measures help the government to explore management methods based on local conditions and promote the healthy and long‐term development of the stall economy.
