Shivam Medical And General Store

Shivam Medical And General Store is in Shop No. 208 of the Shilpgram Complex. We are right at Sant Kanwarram Chowk. This is a very busy intersection, so there is always something happening outside our window. We sell medicines but also general items like soap, toothpaste, and some snacks. It’s a bit of a mix of everything. The shop is quite packed because we try to have everything people might ask for. We have boxes stacked up and the counter is usually covered in papers and registers. It’s a working shop, not a fancy showroom. I run the place with my cousin. We open up early to catch the people going to work. The Shilpgram Complex has a lot of offices, so we get a lot of workers coming in for a quick headache pill or a bottle of water. We don't have a corporate style or uniforms. We just talk to people and help them find what they need. Sometimes we have to search a bit to find a specific item in the back room. The noise from Sant Kanwarram Chowk is constant, but we don't notice it much anymore. We don't have a website or any social media. People just know where we are. It’s a basic, honest business. We try to keep enough stock so nobody leaves empty-handed. It’s a lot of work, but we like being in the middle of everything.
