The urban scale of the informal economy as an economy is inevitably accepted in the economic structure. Despite creating challenges and urban issues caused by the weakness of the urban planning and management system, this economy has many capacities. The purpose of this research is to know the structure of this type of economy in the physical and economic system of the city so that it can be a guide for formulating the type of intervention and organizing them. The research method is an inductive-interpretive method based on the database model, which was conducted using interview and observation tools in a sample size of 75 fruit sellers in Zanjan city. The collected data were open, central and selective coding, and the categories and concepts and their repeatability coefficient were extracted. Finally, the paradigmatic model resulting from causal, contextual, mediating and strategic conditions was interpreted and its consequences were explained. The paradigmatic model resulting from the mentioned concepts, categories and conditions shows: fruit vendors have focused their activities on establishing a functional distance between residence and work and main roads. The location of the vendors is effective and the space in question has the role of a dock for equipment and work tools. Environmental health, traffic safety, space security, along with market control, family livelihood and organization have been the most important structural categories of freight sellers. The study of the consequent conditions in the paradigm model shows that abandonment, lack of attention of urban management, coercive action, weakness of urban development programs are the consequential obstacles of fruit vendors and the capacity to participate and organize the active consequences of fruit vendors in Zanjan city.
