Introduction A dabbawala (one who carries the box, see Etymology), sometimes
spelled dabbawalla ordabbawallah, is a person in the Indian city ofMumbai whose job is to carry and deliver freshly made food fromhome in lunch boxes to office workers. Tiffin is an old-fashionedEnglish word for a light lunch, and sometimes for the box it is carriedin. Dabbawalas are sometimes called tiffin-wallas. For the efficiencyof theirsupply chain it has been claimed that this virtually achieves a
Six Sigma performance rating, (i.e. 99.9999% of deliveries are madewithout error, he is at CMMi level 6).[1] Though the work sounds simple, it is actually a highly specialized
trade that is over a century old and which has become integral toMumbai's culture.
The dabbawala originated when India was underBritish rule: manyIndian people who worked in British companies disliked the Britishfood served by the companies, so a service was set up to bring lunchto them in their workplace straight from their home. Nowadays,Indian businessmen are the main customers for the dabbawalas, andthe service often includes cooking as well as delivery.

ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
The service is uninterrupted even on the days of extreme weather, such asMumbai's characteristic monsoons. The local dabbawalas at the receiving andthe sending ends are known to the customers personally, so that there is noquestion of lack of trust. Also, they are well accustomed to the local areas theycater to, which allows them to access any destination with ease. Occasionally,people communicate between home and work by putting messages inside theboxes. However, this was usually before the accessibility of
telecommunications
