United Steel Suppliers

United Steel Suppliers is located at 25 Mothinagar on Gangammachari Street. It’s a narrow street and sometimes it is hard to get the big lorries through when they come to drop off the raw material. The warehouse is basically just a big open space filled with stacks of steel rods and heavy plates. It smells like metal and old dust in here most of the time. We spend our mornings moving things around so we can find what someone needs. There is no air conditioning, so it gets quite hot in the summer months under the tin roof. We don't really have a sales team or anything like that. People just walk in or call us on the phone to see what we have in stock. The floor is concrete and it’s pretty cracked from all the heavy lifting over the years. My office is just a corner partitioned off with some plywood where I keep the ledger. It’s a simple setup but it works for what we need to do. Mothinagar is a busy area and there are always people moving about on the street outside. We try to stay organized but with so much steel coming in and out, there is always a bit of a mess. It’s honest work and we’ve been doing it at this same spot for a long time. You can hear the sound of metal clanging all the way down the block when we are unloading a truck.
