Rising Pipes And Fittings

Rising Pipes And Fittings is over at Ravi Estate on Gujarat Bottling Road, near Kewal Kanta in Ahmedabad. It is a very industrial part of town, so you’ll see plenty of trucks and hear the sounds of metal being moved around all day. Our unit, Ff6, is mostly a warehouse where we store all kinds of pipes and fittings. It’s a lot of manual work, lifting heavy iron and plastic parts to get them ready for customers. The office part is just a small desk with a computer and a phone that never stops ringing. The air is often a bit dusty because of the road outside, and the floor is just plain concrete. We don’t have a fancy showroom or anything like that. People just come here because they need specific parts, and we usually have them tucked away on one of the shelves. In the summer, the warehouse gets quite hot, so we keep the big doors open to try and get a breeze. We have a simple routine: we check the orders, find the pipes, and load them up. We know most of the people working in the other units at Ravi Estate, and we sometimes share a tea during the afternoon break. It’s a straightforward, busy life here. We don’t bother with anything corporate; we just make sure the inventory is right.
