We are over at Plot No. 132, sharing the space or right next to the other units here. Umiyaji Plastic has been operating out of this spot for some time. Working with plastic means the machines are always humming and there’s that specific smell in the air all day. It’s not a big place, but we have enough room for the molds and the raw materials. Usually, the floor is covered in small plastic scraps, but we try to clean up at the end of every shift. The lighting isn’t the best in the back corner of the building, but we know where every tool is by heart now. We aren't trying to be the biggest company in the world. We just want to get the pieces made correctly so the people who buy from us don't have issues. It’s a lot of repetitive work, but we stay focused on the task. The guys who work here live nearby mostly, so we all know each other’s families and stories. Sometimes the delivery trucks have a hard time backing into the plot because the road is narrow, but we always figure it out eventually. We don’t spend any money on fancy signs or marketing. The name is painted on the gate and that’s plenty. If you’re looking for us, just find Plot 132. We’ll be inside working. It’s a simple life here, just keeping the machines fed and the parts moving out. We just keep our heads down and do our jobs.
