Our Kitchens

The kitchen is at the heart of our work. With close to 1.3 million meals prepared everyday throughout India, the Akshaya Patra kitchens are highly mechanized and scalable. Often termed as Intelligently Engineered Kitchens, they were built with a commitment to quality and hygiene that ensures the best possible food for the children.

Each one is uniquely tailored to meet the requirements of its location, so that the meal provided by Akshaya Patra is suited to the regional preferences of the children.

There are two types of kitchens: centralized and decentralized.

Currently, the Akshaya Patra Foundation has set up 16 centralized and 3 de-centralized kitchens across 9 states.
