Krishna Trading Company

You can find us in Ward No.1 in Forbesganj. We are right near the bus stand, which is the busiest part of the whole town. Because of the location, there is always noise from the horns and the people rushing to catch their rides. We do a lot of trading, mostly smaller batches of goods for local shops. The shop is small and packed with bags and boxes up to the ceiling. Sometimes it's hard to find space to stand if a big delivery just arrived. I work here with my nephew. We spend our mornings checking the inventory and our afternoons dealing with customers. Since we are so close to the buses, we get a lot of people just stopping by to ask for directions or checking what we have. It’s a bit chaotic but we like the energy of the bus stand. The walls could use a fresh coat of paint, but we haven’t had the time to move everything out to do it. We keep a ledger for all the sales, and it’s usually sitting on the wooden desk near the front. There’s a small tea stall next door that we visit often. It’s just a simple trading business. We don't try to be something we’re not. We just buy, sell, and keep the shop running every day. It's a lot of manual work but it keeps us busy from morning to night. We close up when the last bus leaves.
