Sai Laxmi Steel And Cement

Our business, Sai Laxmi Steel And Cement, is located at 15/1 Bhuvaneshwari Nagar near Crawford Market. If you know the area, you know it is one of the busiest spots you can find. We deal in the heavy stuff—bags of cement and steel rods mostly. The shop is usually covered in a bit of grey dust from the cement, and there is the sound of metal clanging as we load and unload deliveries. It’s not a fancy place to visit. We have our stock piled up high and we spend most of our time coordinating with builders and people doing home repairs. Crawford Market is always crowded, so getting our trucks in and out takes some skill and a lot of shouting. We don't have a marketing department or a fancy website. We just have a phone that rings a lot and a ledger where we keep track of who owes what. It is a tough business because the materials are heavy and the margins are thin, but we have been doing it at Bhuvaneshwari Nagar for a long time. People come to us because we are right here and we have what they need for their construction. We don't make big promises, we just tell you what we have in stock and how much it costs. It’s a very direct way of doing things. We stay open until late evening and then we go home tired.
