Fresh Fruit in Hunting Park

Yin Keo, owner of a local fruit truck in Hunting Park, has worked there everyday from nine in the morning until seven thirty at night for about four years. She lives in the Philadelphia area, and has recently had her business moved from the area near Cecil B Moore and Broad Streets to the cross section of Hunting Park Avenue and Broad Street. The business was forced out of the original area because there were newer and bigger shops opening in a complex called Avenue North. 

Yin and her son work at the Hunting Park fruit truck together and are stationed right outside of a Walgreens, where customers come in and out ready for a fresh cup of cold fruit on a hot day. The only things around the area are commercial businesses such as this Walgreens, and a McDonald's, so the fruit truck gives the corner a more authentic and homier feel, and provides refreshing fruit. The hot summer days that have come upon us recently have made Yin's truck a popular point of interest.
 
Although Yin gets a lot of traffic at her fruit truck, with the Walgreens nearby, bus stops, and the subway, she ultimately prefers her original location. 

"There were students that would be around and they were so nice— very sweet. Also, my house is much closer to there,” Yin said.
