India Steel K Kumar & Co.

Our setup for India Steel K Kumar & Co. is at No. 12 in the Shopping Centre over in Odhav. It’s a practical location, especially being so close to the water canal. The canal is actually a nice landmark for people trying to find us for the first time. The shopping centre itself has been around for a long time, and you can tell by the look of the bricks. We handle a lot of steel, so the space is mostly taken up by heavy materials. It’s a dirty job sometimes, and our clothes usually show it by the end of the shift. We don’t have a fancy lobby or anything. It’s just the workshop and a small area where we handle the billing and talk to customers. The noise from the canal area and the traffic nearby is constant. We start the day by opening the big shutters and checking the list of what needs to be moved. It’s physical work, and it keeps us on our toes. Sometimes the weather makes it tough, especially when it’s raining hard and the canal rises, but we just keep going. We know most of the other business owners in the Odhav area. It’s a community of people just trying to get their work done. We don't spend much time worrying about how the place looks, as long as the steel is moving and the orders are correct. It’s just a basic workplace where we put in our hours every day.
