fruiter
This term is primarily used in British, Australian, and New Zealand English to describe a specialized vendor. In North American English, the term is rare, with speakers typically using "fruit seller" or "grocer" instead.
Because it describes a specific trade or profession, it carries a traditional, local market connotation. It is most frequently encountered in contexts involving street stalls or small independent shops rather than large supermarket chains.
