N K Valves

We set up shop over in Vatva, at Phase 2 of the GIDC. You can find us at Plot 387, Shop C-1/B. We're right near that big water tank, so it's hard to miss us if you're in the neighborhood. We mostly deal with valves. All kinds of them. The shop isn't huge, but we pack a lot into the space we have. There’s always a bit of grease on the hands and some metal shavings on the floor by noon. My father worked in a factory nearby, and I ended up opening this place because I knew the parts people were constantly looking for. It’s a loud area with all the industrial work going on around us. We don't spend much time on fancy decorations or anything like that. We just have our shelves, our tools, and a desk that’s usually buried under invoices. People from the local plants drop by when something breaks or when they're planning a new install. We’ve had the same few guys working here for years. We know the local tea stall owner well, and that’s where most of our breaks happen. It’s a simple life. We work hard, we close up, and we come back and do it again. The Vatva heat can be tough in the summer, but the shop stays relatively cool inside. We just try to be helpful when someone walks through the door with a broken part in their hand.
