Augustinevimalanathan

I’m Augustinevimalanathan and I run my business from 121 Deena Bandhu Nagar. We are right off Cambridge Road in the Halasuru area of Bangalore. It’s a lively neighborhood and I’ve been here for many years. The building is old and the stairs creak a bit, but it’s got a lot of character. I started this work because I wanted to stay close to home. My workspace is filled with books and old files, which might look messy to some people, but it’s my system. I don't have a big corporate team behind me. It’s just a couple of local guys who help out when things get busy. We spend a lot of time talking to the people who stop by. Halasuru is a place where everyone knows everyone else’s business, which I actually like. It makes things feel more personal. We don't use any fancy software to manage our customers. I just write things down in a big ledger. Sometimes the rain in Bangalore makes it hard for people to visit, but we usually stay open regardless. I don’t have a grand mission or a five-year plan. I just want to keep providing for my family and doing honest work for the people in Deena Bandhu Nagar. It’s a simple life, and that suits me just fine. No one here wears a suit or tie, we just get the job done.
