Devi Vegetables Exports

Our place is out in Mundur Bhattarahalli, which is a bit quieter than the city center but still stays busy enough. Devi Vegetables Exports operates out of a large shed where things are constantly being moved. We start our day very early, often while it is still dark outside, because that’s when the produce is the freshest. The air smells like wet earth and green stalks most of the time. We have a crew that spends hours sorting through crates, making sure everything is handled carefully so nothing gets bruised. It’s physical work, and your back definitely feels it by lunch. We don’t have air conditioning, so we rely on the breeze coming through the open doors. The floor is usually covered in stray leaves or bits of packing hay. We spend a lot of time on the phone with farmers and logistics people. It’s a straightforward operation without any bells or whistles. We use simple wooden crates and plastic bins for everything. Sometimes the rain makes the yard a bit muddy, which makes loading the trucks a real chore, but we just put on our boots and get through it. There’s a small desk in the corner where we keep the records, but mostly we are on our feet. It’s a basic setup that suits the kind of work we do every day without any fuss.
