Jc Gupta & Company

Our shop, Jc Gupta & Company, is situated right on Silver Jubilee Park Road, which everyone just calls SP Road. If you’ve ever looked for hardware or tools in Bangalore, you’ve probably walked past us. The address is a bit of a mouthful with Malavalli Rama Rao Road mentioned too, but we are right there in the heart of the market at number 0. It’s a busy, dusty place with people constantly moving boxes and shouting orders. Our store is packed from floor to ceiling with all sorts of industrial supplies, bolts, nuts, and things you’d need for a construction project or a home repair. There isn't much room to move around inside because we try to stock as much as possible. It’s been this way for years. We don't have a fancy computer system to track everything; a lot of it is just knowing which shelf holds what. The air is usually thick with the smell of metal and oil. We deal with all kinds of customers, from big contractors to a guy looking for a single specific screw. It’s a hectic environment, and we’re usually on our feet all day. We aren't trying to be a modern retail store. We’re an old-school hardware house that stays open as long as there are people on the street looking for supplies. It is noisy and crowded, but it is how we like to work.
