Prasad General Store

You can find Prasad General Store near the Hanuman Mandir at Langade Ki Chowki in Agra. We are quite close to the bypass, so there is always a lot of dust and trucks passing by. Our shop has been a part of this area for years, serving the people who live around the mandir. We sell the usual stuff you’d expect at a general store, like spices, grains, and toiletries. The shelves are packed with different brands of oil and shampoo. It’s a small place, and sometimes it’s hard to find things if you don’t know where we’ve put them, but we usually know exactly where every packet is hidden. During festivals, the area around the temple gets really busy, and we end up staying open a bit later than usual. We don’t do anything fancy with marketing or ads. People just know we are here. Most of our day is spent chatting with regulars who come in for their daily milk or to pick up some snacks for their children. The shop is a bit old-fashioned, with wooden counters and a ceiling fan that makes a lot of noise. We handle everything ourselves, from unloading the supply rickshaws to sweeping the floor in the evening. It’s just a local business trying to keep up with what the neighborhood needs. Being near the bypass means we get travelers too, looking for a quick bite or some essentials before they get back on the road.
