Application for Ngo Food Supply Chain

: Food is a common problem in our society. Food management is crucial since it can improve our environmental and economic sustainability. We have identified the use of mobile technology to reduce food management and built an android mobile application that allows individual user or restaurants to donate and share their foods and leftovers with people in need. This app will enable users to register, login, view items, add items, add items to cart, remove an item from the cart, and log out. This app is using the sql storage and real-time database. Any user in need can see all the food images donated by different users and add it to his or her cart. SWIGGY and ZOMATO have emerged as the biggest players in online food ordering and delivery marketplace in India. Some of the other major players operating in the Indian market are, Faaso’s Food Services Private Limited, Food vista India Private Limited, Food Panda and Uber EATS, etc. Like these we are making system for remaining food of our home or programme , these food we can supply to ngo through the application.
