🚩 The Problem

India's vibrant street food economy faces a critical, often overlooked challenge: the daily sourcing of raw materials. Street food vendors work on thin margins, and unsold perishable goods at the end of the day—like chopped vegetables, paneer, or batter—translate into direct financial loss and food waste.

Meanwhile, nearby vendors may be in urgent need of those exact items but are forced to either close early or incur expenses sourcing them from distant markets.

💡 The Solution — Saajha Rasoi

Saajha Rasoi is a mobile-first web application that acts as a hyper-local peer-to-peer marketplace, enabling vendors to sell surplus perishable items to nearby vendors in real time.

✅ Benefits for All:

• Sellers recover some cost from potential food waste.
• Buyers get ingredients quickly at a lower price.
• Communities benefit from reduced food waste and stronger vendor cooperation.
