You can find us out on Bhavnagar Road. We are tucked right behind the HP Petrol Pump, so if you miss the pump, you’ll probably miss us too. It’s an industrial area, so there’s always a lot of dust and big trucks moving around. The plant stays pretty loud during the day. We’ve been operating here for quite a while now. Most of the guys on the floor have been doing this for a long time and they know the machines better than anyone. It’s hard work and it’s often very hot, especially during the summer months. We don’t have a fancy office with air conditioning everywhere. It’s mostly just the warehouse and a small room where we keep the books. We deal with a lot of raw materials and the smell is something you just get used to after a week. Sometimes things break down and we have to spend the whole night fixing them. That’s just part of the business. We get deliveries at odd hours, so someone is usually around. We aren't a big corporation with thousands of employees. We’re just a local outfit trying to get the orders out on time. The road outside is always busy with people heading into the city. We just stay in our corner behind the pump and keep the machines running. It’s a simple setup but it works for what we do.
