Successes and difficulties of the dabbawalas

in Mumbai

The dabbawalas must be very strong because it is

difficult to carry 40 lunchboxes. They deliver the

lunchboxes on bikes (they share their bikes), in

trains, and with carts.

The service is very famous. Prince Charles visited

the dabbawalas because they are the best service in

Mumbai. They are excellent but they are illiterate.

They can’t read, they can’t write so they must use a

code.
