Mumbai's dabbawalas, a centuries-old food delivery service for Indian workers

Food delivery services are now a $150 billion industry worldwide. The rise of user-friendly apps has led to these services becoming ubiquitous in many countries. But before Uber Eats or Deliveroo, there were dabbawalas. In the Indian city of Mumbai, they are familiar faces roaming the streets on foot or by bike, carrying tin cans or lunchboxes. For over a century, these men dressed in white have brought homemade meals to workers around the city. Our France 2 colleagues report on this unique food delivery system, with FRANCE 24's Lauren Bain.
