Deepak Cements And Chemicals Ltd.

We are located at 400 Platinum Plaza in Ahmedabad, which is a pretty standard office building in a very busy part of the city. Deepak Cements And Chemicals Ltd. isn't where the actual manufacturing happens; this is the hub where we manage the sales and the distribution side of the business. It’s a lot of sitting at desks, making phone calls to suppliers, and checking on the status of shipments across the state. The office gets a lot of natural light, which is nice, but it also gets incredibly hot in the afternoons during the summer months. We have a lot of filing cabinets filled with years of records and stacks of paper that never seem to get smaller. It’s a bit of a frantic pace sometimes because the cement and chemical markets move fast, and prices are always changing. We don't have a fancy reception area with a coffee machine; we just have a few chairs and a lot of work to get through. Most of the staff has been here for years, so we all know each other’s habits and how the boss likes his tea. Ahmedabad is a city that never really stops, and we feel that energy here every day. We just try to keep the orders moving and make sure that we don't miss anything in the fine print of the contracts. It’s simple office work, but it keeps the whole operation running. There is usually a pile of outgoing mail by the door.
