Our High-tech Kitchens
A Pioneering Program
Akshaya Patra operates 18 centralized and decentralized kitchens, located in eight states across India. It is a pioneering program in India's social and developmental sector, which uses technology extensively for minimizing cost, time and labor.
The program has leveraged technology in cooking and delivery, built global standards of supply chain efficiency and built forward and backward linkages by ensuring that procurement is done directly from the farmers for the inputs and delivered to the beneficiaries in the most cost-efficient manner.
Flexibility & Creativity
One of the cornerstones of Akshaya Patra’s success is the flexibility and creativity with which the program has been conceived and executed. Where the environment is conducive, the program has incorporated a centralized approach, backed by technology-driven processes. In situations where infrastructure is not conducive, it has adopted a decentralized mode of operations, to cater to the need of the local community.
