While I was working I would get my lunch delivered to the office by what are called "Dhabhawalas'
They had a mysterious way of delivering lunch boxes to countless in the city and they made no mistake. They had certain markings on our lunch boxes which only they understood. The empty lunch box would then be taken back as well and correctly delivered again
Prince Charles was so impressed that he got himself involved with them. You can see a bit of it here

@Ineeddentures The whole world knows about that but his interest in Dhabhawalas is real and not something a Prince would normally indulge in and he did

Delivering lunch is a complicated issue and these dhabhawallas have a system for it
