    Sort of meals on wheels for busy workers who are fed up with sandwiches.
    Spot on DimPrawn

    I was in Delhi recently and same concept.

    Even McD deliver to home or business with minimum order I think 300 Rupees. [£4 odd]

    All the business make a killing in the western business areas.

    Did you mean this one here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dabbawala ?

    1 error in 6 million deliveries seems impressive!

    I'm sure I remember a product like this that used to be on sale at tube stations, instead though it was a package of fresh ingredients that you picked up on the way home from work and dumped into a wok or similar for a couple of minutes when you got there.

    Can't remember the business being around for long though.

    I once looked into setting up a business that delivered "home cooked meals" for people that were fed up with the normal pizza / chineese / indian.

    Business link said it was a stupid idea. And also there were a couple of blokes that were on dragons den last series with that idea. They got laughed off.

    Graze boxes for IT contractors, so essentially "cake by post".
