Organized by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), the Kaizen Awards recognize and encourage organizations across India to undertake small but impactful quality and food safety improvement initiatives. The awards span three categories—small and micro, medium, and large organizations—and evaluate entries on creativity, replicability, employee involvement, and measurable benefits. They provide a platform to highlight meaningful solutions that drive progress in quality and food safety.
