Shivam Flour Industries Private Limited

Our mill is out in Ahmadpura, right on the road between Dehgam and Rakhiyal. If you know the area, we are quite close to the Nilkanth Mahadev temple. You can usually hear the bells in the morning. Being a flour business means there is always a bit of white dust on everything, no matter how much we sweep. It’s just the way it is when you’re grinding grain all day. We’ve been here in Gandhinagar for a while now, and most of the folks around here know where to find us. The building isn't anything special to look at, just a sturdy place for the machines. We spend most of our time making sure the grinders are running right and the bags are filled properly. It gets noisy when everything is turned on, so we have to shout a bit to hear each other. We get trucks coming in and out from the main road, and sometimes the traffic at the crossing can be a pain. But we like being in Dehgam. It’s away from the main city rush of Ahmedabad, though we aren't that far really. People from the village stop by to talk or check on their orders. We don't have any fancy marketing people. It’s just us, the grain, and the customers who have been coming to us for years. It's hard work, and your clothes always end up smelling like wheat, but it's a good honest living for us.
