Alfa Engg. & Trading Co.

We started Alfa Engg. & Trading Co. quite a few years back. If you know Circuit House Road, you know exactly where we are. It’s a busy spot but it works for us. Mostly we deal with engineering parts and various trading items that people in the industry need. It isn't a fancy setup or anything like that. Just a regular workplace where we keep things organized so we can find what we need when a customer asks. Usually, the mornings are the busiest because that's when the deliveries arrive. We spend a lot of time checking lists and making sure the stock is right. Sometimes the traffic on the road makes it hard for the trucks to pull in, but we manage. People stop by because they know we have the stuff or can get it. We don't spend money on big signs or anything. The shop is just a place where we do our business every day. My brother and I, plus a couple of helpers, run the place. We’ve seen the neighborhood change a lot over the years. New buildings coming up and old ones getting torn down. But we stay right here on Circuit House Road. It’s a decent place to work. We just try to keep things moving and make sure the paperwork is done right. Nothing too complicated about it. We’re usually here from early morning until the sun goes down, just doing what needs to be done. Sometimes the roof leaks a little when it pours, but we have some buckets for that and just keep working.
