Nandini Industries

Our place, Nandini Industries, is situated right in the Udyambag Industries Estate. It is on Plot No. 41 in Rajaram Nagar, which is quite close to the Gogte Institute of Technology. You can often see the students walking by while we are loading up the trucks. The building is at S. No. 698/330 and it has seen a lot of work over the years. Inside, it is mostly heavy machinery and stacks of raw material waiting to be processed. The floor is concrete and usually covered in a thin layer of dust from the surrounding industrial area. We do a lot of heavy lifting here, so the guys are always busy with the cranes or moving pallets around. It is not the kind of place where you wear a suit. Most of us are in old clothes that have seen better days. When the monsoon hits, the rain on the metal roof is so loud you can hardly hear the person standing right next to you. We just get on with it though. There is a lot of pride in just finishing a job and seeing the parts go out the gate on time. We have a small corner for keeping our lunch boxes and a water cooler that everyone congregates around when it gets too stuffy inside. It is just a regular factory doing regular work for the local market.
