Roman shops would sell everything and anything. While they had special places (fora) set aside for things such as meat, fish and vegetables, there was no law that said these things could not be sold elsewhere. All a merchant had to do was register with the local aedile. Some other things that were sold were spices, herbs, medicines, fabrics, jewelry, pottery and sculptures, leather goods, books, wines, fast food, and various services.
