Question

1. A Dabbawala is a person in Mumbai, whose job is carrying and delivering freshly made food from home in lunch boxes to office workers. They are formally known as MTBSA (Mumbai Tiffin Box Suppliers Association), but most people refer to them as the Dabbawalas. The Dabbawalas originated when India was under the British rule. Since many British people who came to India did not like the local food , a service was set up to bring lunch to their offices straight from their homes. 2. Today , businessmen in modern Mumbai use this service and have become the main customers of the Dabbawalas. By delivering to each employee his tiffin or lunch , the Dabbawalas solve the problem for an estimated 200,000 people. they charge between 150/- to 300 /-, per Dabba per month, depending on the location and collection time. 3. They are an incredible team. They have a record of no strikes against management. They are always on time, even through the rainiest days on the planet. Their creativity and ingenuity have kept them alive. When telephones services were at a premium in India , the Dabbawalas encouraged housewives to use their system to communicate with their spouses by placing little chits inside their boxes. The husbands enjoyed the chits as much as the food. Thus, the Dabbawalas were able to " think outside the box " and broaden their capabilities given in a very limited infrastructure . Dabbawalas have also embraced technology. On March 2006, the Dabbawalas went online with www.mydabbawala.com. The dabbawalas have become icons of hard work and dedication. In fact , the 5,000 strong workforce (there are a handful of women) is so well known that Prince Charles paid them a visit during his recent trip of India. Several academic institutions regularly invite the Dabbawala's representatives for discussion , and to complement and enhance their academic content.
