Project Brief:
Nearly 1/3rd of all the food in the world is wasted annually, which amounts to a staggering 1.3 billion tons! This ensures one thing, that we are not suffering from food shortage, but the lack of food serving infrastructure, that is sustainable and profitable.
To battle this issue, we created a system, called rescue basket. This system keeps the track of the inventory of a grocery store's, or a restaurant's inventory, and the expiration dates. When the expiration dates are near, the system will automatically club the items together, and create a rescue bucket. The created bucket will be considerably cheaper than the MRP of the items. This will ensure that the expired food is not wasted, and it is instead used by an organisation that processes large amounts of raw materials at a single time.
The above system will ensure that food wastage is reduced by atleast 30 percent.
Households are also a large contributor to food wastage. When the system is scaled up, we can enable a system that collects waste food from households, and donates it.
It's our humble attempt at reducing food wastage.
