Literature Review on Waste Food Management System

Food is a global issue that impacts individuals and organisations across various sectors, including homes, schools, restaurants, grocery stores, production facilities, and transportation systems. This project uses web technology to address food waste by facilitating the donation of leftover food from hotels, functions to people in need. The web application also uses real-time DB to store information. Through this website, donors can add details about the food they wish to donate, and volunteers from NGOs can view images of donated food from different donors. This platform aims to streamline the process of food donation, ensuring that excess food is redirection to those who can benefit from it, rather than being wasted.[1] Food is an essential need for all human beings. But in the current society, many people cannot afford or fulfil their daily food requirements. Many people want to help people who are starving, but the problem is there isn’t a good and reliable platform to get information and connect the donor and receiver that is available. The application’s main purpose is to bring together individuals who have excess assets and are eager to give back to the community to help those who are in need. Another advantage of this system is that it allows organisations to create funds within the system that raise funds for their charitable projects related to food insecurity and improving agriculture. It also helps in improving the trustworthiness of the users of the system. For example organisations need to be verified by the admin to use the system. Also, each fundraiser program created by the registered organisation will be reviewed by the admin before publish it in the system.[2]
