The main focus is to provide hygienic panipuri in large scale and to deliver it without consuming more amount of time. This machine will reduce the labour cost. It will also provide 24/7 service to the customers. The machine can be moved from one place to other where the electricity is available. It is very easy to install in places like malls, restaurants, luxury hotels, airports, etc. Almost everyone in this world can use this machine.

Customers/Users 1. 10,000 Panipuri vendors whose overall income is 5k-6k/ day.

2. Selling it to 2000 corporate offices approximately, the revenue would be around Rs. 20-24 crore.
