Inspiration

Food safety and hygiene are major concerns in food supply chains and street food businesses. Customers often do not know whether a food vendor follows hygiene standards or possesses valid certifications. We wanted to create a simple platform that increases transparency and trust between vendors, administrators, and customers.

What it does

The Food Vendor Trust System is a web application that allows:

  • Vendors to register their business details.
  • Administrators to monitor vendor statistics and verification status.
  • Customers to browse vendors and view trust information such as:
    • FSSAI verification status
    • Hygiene rating
    • Trust badges
    • Vendor category
    • Location information

The system improves visibility and trustworthiness in the food supply ecosystem.

How we built it

The frontend was developed using React and Vite.

The application contains three main modules:

Home Page

Displays all vendors along with:

  • Vendor name
  • Category
  • Location
  • Hygiene rating
  • Trust badge
  • FSSAI verification status

Vendor Registration Module

Allows vendors to submit:

  • Vendor name
  • Category
  • Location
  • Phone number

Admin Dashboard

Provides administrators with:

  • Total vendors
  • Verified vendors
  • Pending verification count
  • Average hygiene rating

Navigation between pages is implemented using React Router.

Challenges we ran into

  • Connecting multiple pages using routing.
  • Designing reusable React components.
  • Organizing vendor information into reusable data files.
  • Creating a clean UI within hackathon time constraints.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Successfully built a multi-page React application.
  • Implemented vendor profiles and trust indicators.
  • Created an admin dashboard for monitoring vendor statistics.
  • Designed a complete prototype within a short time.

What we learned

  • React component architecture
  • React Router navigation
  • State and props management
  • Organizing frontend projects using reusable components

What's next for Food Vendor Trust System

Future improvements include:

  • Backend integration
  • Database support
  • Real-time vendor registration
  • AI-based hygiene prediction
  • QR code verification
  • Blockchain-based trust certificates
  • User authentication and role management
