Correct strategy for setting up stalls

[Akobski]

Is it true that it's better to disable "Enable market stall setup" option for woodcutters, hunters, foragers, etc.. and instead assign many workers to storehouse/granary?

Will the storehouse/granary workers automatically set up stalls for everything, and that way woodcutters & hunters will only have to transport their goods to storehouse/granary, not spending time about markets. Is that the right strategy or not?

I let the woodcutter, hunter, tannery set up stalls right at the beginning and let the storehouse and granary workers take over their stalls once I can spare the pops to work them. I believe the storehouse and granary workers do all the collecting.

This. The whole point of the storehouse and granary workers is that they use carts, which can transport a lot more goods at once. So once you can properly staff your storehouse and granary, let them handle the market stalls. As this frees up a LOT of time for other people to do other things.

Thank you for this clarification. I built a granary directly next to a forager's hut (which is on the remote edge of the map, far from my town center marketplace,) but noticed workers walking to town with a handful of berries and then schlepping back to the hut...
Now I know why...

How many carts do they have for each storehouse

There is no amount of carts they have specifically. It's just "people working in the storehouse/granary use carts automatically to transport goods."

I only allow the granary and storehouse workers to set up stalls and I build them right next to where I have my market
