Bhakti Industries

Bhakti Industries is located at A-25 in the Additional Amravati Industrial Area, which is part of the MIDC in Nandgaon Peth. Sawardi is the nearby area, but mostly we are surrounded by other industrial sheds and open land. The road out here is long and straight, and you can see the heat shimmering off the asphalt in the afternoons. Our facility is a large shed with high ceilings to help keep it cool, though it still gets plenty warm inside during the peak of summer. We have a small office partitioned off in one corner where the computer and the files live. The rest of the space is for the heavy lifting and the machines. There is always a layer of dust on everything because of the dry earth around here. We start early to beat the worst of the sun, and the sound of the machines starting up is how we know the day has really begun. We aren't much for fancy meetings; we usually just talk over the noise on the floor to figure out what needs to happen next. At lunchtime, we sit in the shade of the building to eat our tiffins. It’s quiet out here compared to the city, except for the sounds of the industrial estate itself. We’ve been at this spot for a while now and the routine is pretty well set. It’s honest work in a place that doesn't pretend to be something it’s not.
