We are on a mission to transform the way surplus food reaches those who need it most, creating a sustainable ecosystem that benefits everyone.
To eliminate food waste by creating an efficient, technology-driven platform that connects restaurants and hotels with surplus food to NGOs and communities in need. We strive to ensure that no good meal goes to waste while addressing hunger and malnutrition in our society.
A world where food waste is eliminated, hunger is eradicated, and every community has access to nutritious meals. We envision Akshaya as the leading platform for food redistribution, creating a sustainable circular economy that benefits both businesses and society.
How Akshaya came to life through passion and purpose
Akshaya was born from a simple observation: millions of people go hungry every day while tons of perfectly good food gets wasted. In 2023, our founder witnessed this paradox firsthand when they saw restaurants throwing away surplus food at the end of each day, while nearby communities struggled with food insecurity.
The name "Akshaya" comes from Sanskrit, meaning "imperishable" or "never diminishing" – reflecting our belief that when we share food with love and purpose, its impact never diminishes. Instead, it multiplies, creating ripples of positive change throughout communities.
What started as a small initiative to connect a few local restaurants with nearby NGOs has grown into a comprehensive platform serving multiple cities. We've learned that technology, when combined with human compassion, can solve complex social problems at scale.
Today, Akshaya stands as a testament to what's possible when businesses, nonprofits, and technology work together toward a common goal. Every meal rescued, every partnership formed, and every life touched brings us closer to our vision of a world without food waste or hunger.
