Nandi Granites & Marbels

You can find us at number 205 on the Banasawadi Ring Road. We’re pretty close to the Bhathny restaurant, which is where we usually grab a quick bite when things aren't too crazy. The Ring Road is always a mess of cars and trucks, so there’s never a quiet moment at our place. We have big slabs of granite and marble lined up along the side of the yard. They are heavy and hard to move, so we use a lot of muscle and some old machinery to get them into place. It’s not a fancy showroom with shiny floors. Our floor is mostly concrete and dirt. We don't wear suits or use big words to describe the stone. We just call it what it is and show people the natural patterns. Some days it’s just me and one other person here, trying to keep up with the paperwork and the customers. We get a lot of dust on everything, so we’re constantly wiping down the samples so people can see the colors. We don’t have a mission statement or anything like that. We just want to get through the day, sell some stone, and make sure the customers are satisfied with what they picked out. It’s a local business and we treat it that way. We know the neighbors and we know the traffic patterns. It’s just how we live.
