Gurukrishna Garment Industry

Our workshop is located at S. F. No. 138 in Thattan Thottam. It’s a bit out of the way in Nambiyampalayam, but we like the quiet. Gurukrishna Garment Industry isn't a massive factory. It’s more of a dedicated space where we get things done. We have a few rows of machines and a big table for checking the finished pieces. The light in here is good in the mornings. We usually start early before it gets too warm. Everyone has their own station. We’ve been working together for a long time, so we don't need to talk much to know what needs to happen. The smell of new fabric is the first thing you notice when you walk in. We go through a lot of thread every week. Sometimes the needles break and we have to stop to fix them. It’s all part of the process. We don't have any big marketing plans or glossy brochures. We just focus on the garments we are making right now. Nambiyampalayam is a decent place to be. It’s peaceful enough that we can focus on the sewing. When the sun goes down, we lock up and head home. It’s a honest day’s work. We don't ask for much more than that. Just keeping the machines running and the orders moving. The drive out here can be bumpy, but you get used to the road. It's just a quiet life making clothes for people to buy.
