Tha Popatlal Kanji Sons

If you go down to the Market Yard in Surat, you’ll find us at number 32. Tha Popatlal Kanji Sons has been part of the landscape here for a good bit. Surat is a city that never really stops, and the Market Yard is probably one of the busiest spots you could pick. There is always someone moving a crate or a truck trying to squeeze through a gap that’s too small. Our place at 32 is just a standard spot. It’s got that old-school feel you get in these kinds of markets. The walls have seen a lot of years. It’s not about being modern or having fancy glass walls here. It’s about being where the trade is. We show up, open the doors, and get to work. The name Tha Popatlal Kanji Sons is on the front, and people around here know us mostly by the location. You get used to the noise of the market after a few days. It’s a bit of a maze if you aren’t from Surat, but number 32 is easy enough to spot once you’re inside the yard. We don’t have much in the way of decorations. It’s mostly just stuff related to the business and a few chairs for when someone stops by to talk. It’s loud, it’s dusty, and it’s home for us. We've been here for years and the routine of the yard is just part of our lives.
