Little World Departmental Stores

Little World Departmental Stores is tucked away at 23-56/82 in Vanganahalli, which is part of H S R Layout. We know there are a lot of big stores around this part of Bangalore, but we try to offer a more personal experience here. It’s a medium-sized shop where we try to fit in a little bit of everything, from kitchen staples to some small household plastic items. The name sounds a bit cute, but we’re just a practical shop for the neighborhood. I spend most of my day making sure the inventory is correct because we hate having to tell a customer we’re out of something. The aisles are wide enough for two people to pass, but it can still get a bit cramped on Sunday mornings. We have some help from a few local boys who assist with the stocking and carrying bags to people's cars or scooters. We don’t have a fancy dress code, just comfortable clothes because we’re on our feet all day. Sometimes the billing machine acts up and we have to restart it, which causes a small delay, but our customers are usually patient. We aren't looking to expand into a giant chain, we just like being the local shop for the Vanganahalli community. It’s a lot of work to keep things running, but seeing the same people every week makes it feel like a real community effort. We just do our best.
