Infosys is implementing temporary measures at its major Indian campuses due to a commercial LPG shortage impacting food vendors. Food courts in Pune, Bengaluru, and Chennai will operate with a limited menu, with some food being prepared off-site, and employees are encouraged to bring home-cooked meals.
The company has advised against holding catered campus events and urged vendors to explore alternative cooking methods like electrical appliances and biofuels. Infosys stated the full menu will be restored once LPG supplies stabilize.
The main topics covered are the operational disruptions to campus food services, the specific temporary measures being taken, and the company's request for employee cooperation during the supply shortage.
Software major Infosys has told employees that food courts at its campuses in Pune, Bengaluru and Chennai will operate with a limited menu amid the ongoing shortage of commercial LPG supplies impacting the hospitality sector.
In separate internal notifications on Wednesday, the company said certain cooked items may not be available for the time being and sought employee cooperation as vendors work to manage the disruption.
At its Pune development centre, employees were advised to avoid organising campus events that require catering arrangements and, where possible, bring food from home.
âAll food courts will temporarily operate with a limited menu and some of the cooked food will be sourced from vendorsâ external central kitchens,â the Pune campus communication said.
The company has also urged food court operators to explore alternative cooking methods using electrical appliances and biofuel. âA small adjustment at an individual level can collectively make a meaningful impact, and we truly appreciate your cooperation and understanding,â the announcement said.
At the Chennai campus, the company said vendors were arranging alternatives to minimise disruption and that the full menu would be restored once supplies stabilise. It also said certain offerings, including live food counters, would remain suspended until further notice.
The Bengaluru campus similarly informed employees that some food items may not be available or could be served in limited quantities.
The company did not respond to a late email seeking comment.
According to Infosysâ latest ESG report for 2024â25, the company processes 100% of organic waste generated across its campuses â including food and garden waste â through biogas plants and organic waste converters. The biogas produced is used in food court kitchens, while the compost generated is used for landscaping.
