You can find me out near the Sarkhej Bavla Highway, which is part of NH 8A in the Sanand area of Ahmedabad. Specifically, I'm at Nariman Point, but not the one you're thinking of in Mumbai. This is our local spot out here. Being near the highway means there's always a lot of dust and noise from the trucks going by, but it’s a great location for being accessible. I spend most of my time here dealing with the day-to-day tasks of the business. It’s a straightforward setup without any unnecessary frills. The building is sturdy and does the job. Sanand has changed a lot lately with all the factories and industries coming in, so it’s an interesting place to be right now. I don’t have a big staff or a fancy lobby. It's usually just me and maybe a couple of others getting through the list of things to do. Sometimes the heat in Ahmedabad gets to be a bit much, especially being so close to the road, but we have some fans going to keep us sane. It’s an honest way to make a living and I’ve been at it for a good while. People know where to find me if they need something. It’s just a regular workplace where we focus on getting the job done right. I’ve lived around here for years, so this highway feels like home, even with all the honking and the heavy traffic passing by.
