Maria Import & Export Co

Maria Import & Export Co is based out of Sri Krishna Rukmani Nivas, located at number 5 in Ramamurthy Nagar. We are situated right off Tumkur Road, near the Naksandra Post area. The building is more like a house than an office, which makes the whole day feel a bit more relaxed than being in some glass tower downtown. Boxes are often piled up in the corners because that is just the nature of the business. Sometimes the hallway gets a bit narrow when a new shipment arrives and we have to shuffle things around. Traffic on Tumkur Road is a common topic in the mornings since it usually makes someone late. It’s a very busy route with all the big trucks heading toward the highway. Our spot is a little tucked away, so people have to look for the house name on the gate to find us. There isn't a fancy reception area or any uniforms here. Most of us just wear our regular clothes while we check lists and make sure things are packed up right. The neighbors are mostly families, so we try to keep things quiet when we are loading stuff. It gets very peaceful in the evenings after the nearby post office closes up. We’ve been in this part of town for a good while and it feels like home now. The rainy season makes the yard a bit muddy, but we manage somehow.
