Gurudev Stores

Ahmadabad is a big city, and we are just one small part of it. Gurudev Stores has been sitting here for a good while. We don't have a complicated story. We just opened up one day and stayed open. The city around us is always changing, but we try to keep things consistent. Our shop is full of all sorts of things. It’s a bit of a squeeze sometimes when we get a new shipment in. We aren't some big corporate chain. It's just us behind the counter. We know the regulars. We know who wants the newspaper and who is looking for a specific snack. The morning rush is usually the busiest time. Everyone is in a hurry to get to work. We try to be quick but sometimes the register acts up. It's an old machine. We probably need a new one but this one has character. The lights flicker a bit in the back corner. We keep saying we will change the bulb but then we forget. Ahmadabad is hot, so we keep the fan going full blast. It doesn't do much but it helps a little. We like being part of the community here. You see the kids grow up and start coming in on their own. It’s nice. We don't have a website or anything fancy. If you want something, you just come by and see what we have on the shelves. We'll be here. It’s not perfect, but it’s our shop.
