The base kitchens to be set up at almost all the major stations will prepare about six lakh meals and snacks every day in hygienic conditions.
Pantry cars, on the other hand, might be used to store food and snacks prepared in the base kitchens, said a senior railway official.
Only hot beverages likes tea, coffee and soup will be prepared in pantry cars.
There are 302 mail and express trains having pantry cars for preparing and serving food to onboard passengers.
Railways will give land near the stations to set up base kitchens.
Railways will give land at a nominal fee of Rs 1 per sq feet to caterers for setting up the base kitchens. The total volume of food business in the railways is estimated to be around Rs 2000 crore a year.
Meanwhile, the railways are finalizing a common bidding format across the country for providing branded food items. It will empanel brands for certain items and make it mandatory for caterers to invest in base kitchens.
The bidding norms have provisions to prevent only a few catering firms from cornering a large share of business. The bidding in catering service is expected to begin by May this year.
