Alex Industries

You can find us at Plot No. 3709-4 in the GIDC area. It’s a busy part of town with lots of trucks and tempos moving through the narrow streets. Our workshop is usually full of activity from eight in the morning until late in the evening. We don't have a big corporate office or a team of people in suits. It’s just us in our work clothes, getting things done. There are rows of machines and a lot of raw materials waiting to be processed. The walls have some stains and the floor is scratched up from moving heavy crates around. We use simple tools and do a lot of the work by hand. It’s not a high-tech facility, but we know how to use what we have. Sometimes the heat in the summer is hard to deal with, so we take short breaks in the shade. We talk about normal things like the price of vegetables or our kids' school. We don't have a mission statement hanging on the wall. We just have a list of things that need to be finished by Friday. We try to be helpful when people call, but we are usually busy on the floor. Alex Industries is a small operation, and that’s fine with us. We take pride in finishing the work and heading home to our families. It’s a practical life and we don't ask for more.
