Apollo Machinery

Out here in Phase-IV of the GIDC in Vatva, things move at a pretty steady pace. We are located at 712/1 in the Parmeshwar Estate, which is a big place with lots of different businesses. At Apollo Machinery, we’re mostly focused on the hardware and the mechanical side of things. The workshop floor is always the center of everything, with parts scattered around and the sound of heavy tools being used. It’s not the quietest place to work, but we like the noise. It means we’re actually doing something. Most of the staff live nearby, so we’re a local bunch. We don’t have a big corporate office with glass walls; it’s more about the metal and the grease here. We’ve been in this spot for a while, and we’ve seen the estate change quite a bit over the years. The afternoon sun hits the front of the building pretty hard, so we usually take our main break then. We don't use big words or have long meetings about the future. We just look at what needs to be built or fixed today and we get on with it. It’s a straightforward way to earn a living. The paperwork gets done on a small desk in the corner, but the real work happens out on the floor. That’s just how we operate at Apollo. There is always a machine that needs attention or a part that needs cleaning.
