How can you get a newly placed food stall operational?

I am not sure if I am missing something but how can you get the food stalls which you can place on public lots operational?

The game gives us the possibility to place these stalls into public properties which we adjust or build from scratch. But so far I never saw a vendor showing up for the food stalls which I placed myself, only for the ones which are prebuilt in the game.

Does anybody know how this can be done? Is there anything specific you need to do to get a vendor to appear?

Or is it the same in your games and this should be reported as a bug?

Thanks a lot in avance!

All self placed stalls always look like this in my game with the “sorry we`re closed” sign:

From what I’ve learned it’s not possible, but when I wanted to test it to prove, something weird happened.

I copied the shaved ice stand and placed the copied one right next to it.
On the left is the one that was there before, on the right the newly placed one.

And then the newly placed stand opened, and all the others that have been there before,
but not the shaved ice stand that has been there before I placed the new one ö.ö

This is really strange… And thank you for checking!

I actually wanted to place a stand on a newly built lot for one of the multipurpose properties but this then of course does not work because there is nothing to copy there.

To be honest I do not really understand then why we even have all these food stalls in the build menue when placing them results in a broken, not operational food stall.

Maybe they will be functional with the ‘My Business’ feature?

Hopefully! Still not sure if this is intended or a bug.

From what I’ve read they’re just decoration for now and will be functional with coming updates. I’m hoping that the business update will let us run our own food stalls. I waiting to open a vegan taco stand.
