FSSAI Supported by Danone India inaugurated Mauli – India’s First All-Women Clean Street Food Hub in Mumbai. The hub was formally inaugurated by Union Minister Piyush Goyal on August 17, 2025. This landmark initiative, launched under FSSAI’s Eat Right India movement, brings together food safety, women’s empowerment and sustainable entrepreneurship.
The hub is fully operated by women from Self-Help Groups (SHGs) who have successfully undergone FoSTaC (Food Safety Training and Certification). Equipped with training in hygiene, safety and business operations, these women are now delivering clean and high-quality street food while ensuring food safety and consumer trust.
Shashi Ranjan, managing director, Danone India, said, At Danone, we are committed to positively impacting the lives of people in alignment with our mission of bringing health through food to as many people as possible. Through our partnership with FSSAI’s Eat Right initiative, we aim to create safe food zones and promote better hygiene in our communities. By equipping women with essential resources and skills, we are enabling them to build sustainable livelihoods while ensuring high food safety standards. This underscores Danone’s commitment to social impact and women’s economic empowerment by creating meaningful job opportunities and strengthening their role in India's economic growth. Together, we are building healthier communities and a brighter future.”
Goyal said, “The inauguration of Mauli, India’s first all-women Clean Street Food Hub at Kandivali, marks a proud milestone under FSSAI’s Eat Right India movement. Operated entirely by trained SHG women, it is a shining example of women’s empowerment, food safety and community development in action.”
