New Bharath Hardware & Co

Our shop is at Number 82 on Hosur Road, right in the middle of Madivala. If you know this area, you know how loud and dusty the main road can get with all the traffic heading out of the city. We’ve been in this small space for a long time, and honestly, the shelves are so full of hardware that it’s hard to see the walls anymore. It’s a bit of a tight squeeze when more than two people are inside. We don't have a computer system that tracks everything perfectly, so we mostly rely on memory and some old registers we keep behind the counter. New Bharath Hardware & Co has always been about just being here for the local guys who need a handful of nails or a specific wrench. Some days the dust from the road gets everywhere, and we spend half the morning just wiping down the glass displays. We don't really do much in the way of decoration. It’s just a practical place with a lot of heavy metal and tools. We open up early and stay until the traffic starts to die down in the evening. There is a small tea shop two doors down where we usually get our morning chai. It’s a simple life, sitting among the boxes of bolts and talking to the regulars who have been coming to Madivala for years. It’s just a hardware store, nothing more, nothing less.
