a main aisle devoted to the presentation of

Sorry, can't think of an adequate term for "penetrante" in English: it means the main aisle by which one enters the store - plunging you into the heart of your shopping experience. I'm sure soemone else will suggest something better, but we are definitely talking SUPERMARKET not farmers' market here.

"une allée pénétrante saisonnière qui dynamise le magasin"

reserved backalley

A "reserved backalley" for the marketting of fruits and vegetables. This whole sentence sounds like the definition of a Farmers Market.

I'm guessing the 'penetrating' part is a description of how the alley starts from main roads and extends into city blocks.

\'adjoining side street\' may be a beter choice than \'back alley\'.
Peer comment(s):

neutral DocteurPC : I don't think it's a back alley - if it's penetrante - it may not been the main alley, maybe a secondary alley
