Mahalaxmi Paddy Products Pvt. Ltd.

Mahalaxmi Paddy Products Pvt. Ltd. is out on Sirsaganj Road. It is a long road and we see a lot of traffic passing by all day. We deal with all sorts of paddy products here. The building is fairly large, but it still feels crowded once the harvest season kicks in. We have a routine that we follow every morning. First, we check the machines and then we start unloading whatever arrived overnight. Being on Sirsaganj Road means we are easy to find, which is good for the drivers. The sun hits the roof of the mill and makes it bake inside, so we drink a lot of tea and try to stay in the shade when we can. We are a private limited company on paper, but it really just feels like a bunch of us trying to get the work done before it rains. Rain is the biggest problem because we can't let the grain get wet. We have some old tarps that we keep ready just in case. The floor is concrete and it’s usually covered in a thin layer of yellow dust. We don't have a fancy lobby or anything like that. Just a bench outside where people sit and wait for their paperwork. It’s a steady job, and even though it is repetitive, there is something okay about seeing the piles of grain turn into neat bags ready for the market.
