KMC To Grade Food Vendors

KOLKATA: The Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) will award gradation to the street food vendors in a bid to improve the quality of stuff served in the informal food sector.

The KMC is the country’s first civic body to have taken such an initiative.

There are about 16,000 food vendors in Kolkata. The KMC is giving training to food vendors in 104 areas. Once the training is completed the quality of food served to the people in Kolkata would go up, said senior KMC officials.

The Kolkata Module, a guideline to the food vendors was prepared by Professor Indira Chakraborty, former director of All India Hygiene and Public Health and a renowned nutritionist. The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) accepted her module.
