Sai Almarahs Manufacturing

Teachers Colony in Mavala is where you’ll find our workshop. We’ve been operating Sai Almarahs Manufacturing from this spot for some time. It is a simple place with plenty of metal sheets leaning against the walls. The sound of cutting steel is pretty much the background music here every day. It gets quite hot under the tin roof, especially when we are doing the welding work. Most people in the colony know us because of the clanging sounds. We make different kinds of almarahs, mostly the heavy steel ones that people use for years. It’s not an easy job because the metal is heavy and the edges are sharp. My clothes usually have a few holes from the sparks. We start early in the morning before it gets too hot. Mavala is a decent place to work, even if the roads get a bit muddy when it rains. We don't have a fancy showroom or anything like that. People just come to the workshop, look at what we are making, and tell us what size they need. We spend a lot of time painting them too, so there’s always a smell of thinner in the air. It is just a small local setup where we work with our hands. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to sit outside and wait. That is just how things go here in the village area. We keep things moving as best as we can. It's hard work but it's ours.
