Balak Mozri Centre

We’ve been here at Balak Mozri Centre in the heart of the Main Market Nala Bazar for a good while now. If you’ve ever walked through the bazaar, you know how busy it gets with all the people moving around and the noise of the market. Our shop is right there in the middle of it all. Most mornings start with just opening up the shutters and dusting off the displays before the first few folks start trickling in. It’s not a fancy place by any means, just a regular shop where we keep a lot of different types of mozris and traditional footwear stacked up on the shelves. Sometimes the tea guy comes by twice before we even get a chance to sit down properly. We see all sorts of people coming through Nala Bazar, some looking for something specific for a wedding and others just passing by. It’s a lot of work keeping everything organized, especially when the festive season hits and the market gets really packed. We don't have a big corporate team or anything like that, just a few of us here making sure things run okay. The walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but it feels like home to us. Being in this part of the market means we hear all the local gossip and see the same faces every day. It’s a simple life running a shop like this, but we’re used to the rhythm of the street.
