organisation has developed different types of strategies in their organisation which are based on
awareness about the food and to work for the reduction of hunger from the country. The level of
hunger in the country are very high as they create many problem for the government of the
country. There are many people are present in the country which has ordered large amount of
food in restaurants and leave the remaining food on the table. This food are thrown in garbage by
the management of hotel. It is analysed from many market surveys that the food leave on the
table after eating can solve the major part of hunger in the country. The management of
FOODBANK has working on the idea of use the remaining food and how they used to solve the
problem of hunger. The management of the organisation has developed different types of

survey shows that almost 6,25,000 people of the country has needed the food daily to fulfil their
minimum nutrition. The management of FOODBANK has some strength and weakness which is
important to understand for the purpose to make them improve.
