Vittal Fashion

Our place is on the third floor, right above Vittal Garments on DVG Road. If you know Basavangudi, you know how crowded Gandhi Bazaar can get. It’s a bit of a climb up the stairs, but we’ve been here quite a long time. The building is older, and you can hear the noise from the street coming up through the windows. We mostly do wholesale or bulk stuff, but we see all sorts of people. It’s a family-run thing, really. My father started the shop downstairs and then we expanded upwards because we needed more room for all the boxes and stock. It’s not very fancy up here. We have a lot of racks and some old fans that hum all day. Gandhi Bazaar is a special place, especially during festival times when the whole road is packed with flowers and people. We get our shipments in through the narrow back lane, which is always a bit of a struggle. But that's just how it works in this part of Bangalore. We don't do any big marketing. Most of our customers have been coming to us for years because they know where to find us. We just focus on getting the work done and making sure the inventory is right. It’s a lot of manual work, moving bundles around. We stay open late most days to finish up everything. It’s just what we do. We like being part of the history here and seeing the same faces.
