Jammu Kashmir Trading Co.

You can find Jammu Kashmir Trading Co. right in Bazar Kaserian. It’s one of those narrow streets that's always full of energy and people. Our shop is small, and we have things stacked up high to save on space. It smells like the bazaar outside—a mix of everything. We've been here a long time, so we know the other shopkeepers well. We trade in various goods, and our inventory changes depending on what’s available. It’s a bit of a maze inside with all the shelves and containers. We don't have a big staff, just a few of us who know where everything is kept. If someone asks for something specific, we usually have to dig it out from the back. We don't bother with fancy displays or lighting. People come to us because they know we are here. The floor is old stone and the wooden counter has seen better days. We do all our bookkeeping by hand mostly. It's how we’ve always done it. Sometimes it gets cold in the winter because the door stays open to the street. We just wear extra sweaters and keep working. There’s a lot of talking and bargaining going on nearby, which is just part of the atmosphere. We don't try to change anything. We just keep our little corner of the bazaar running and help the customers that stop by each day.
