Legal Definitions - mangonare

Mangonare refers to the act of engaging in commercial transactions within a marketplace, specifically either buying goods or services, or dealing in them.

Here are some examples to illustrate the concept of mangonare:

• Imagine a local baker who regularly attends a farmers' market. Each Saturday, the baker sets up a stall to sell freshly baked breads, pastries, and cakes directly to customers. This activity of the baker selling their goods and engaging in sales transactions with the public at the market is an example of mangonare, as they are actively "dealing" in their products within a market setting.

• Consider an antique collector who visits a specialized antique fair. During the fair, the collector carefully examines various items and eventually purchases a rare porcelain vase from a vendor. This act of the collector acquiring the vase through a commercial transaction at the fair demonstrates mangonare, as they are "buying in a market" to obtain a specific item.

• Think of a small electronics store owner who needs to replenish their stock of laptops and smartphones. The owner attends a large technology trade show where numerous manufacturers and distributors showcase their latest products. The store owner then places orders and makes purchases from several different suppliers at the trade show. This process of the store owner acquiring inventory from various vendors at the trade show is an instance of mangonare, as they are "buying in a market" to facilitate their business operations.
