Laxmi Stone Industries

You can find Laxmi Stone Industries out in Azad Nagar. We are pretty close to the Pannadhay Circle, which is a landmark most people in the district recognize. It’s a bit of a trek for some, but we’ve been here in this spot for years. The yard is usually filled with different types of stone waiting to be moved. It’s a dusty place to work, especially when the wind picks up, but that’s just the nature of what we do. We don’t have a big marketing team or anyone to answer phones all day. Usually, it’s just us out there handling the material ourselves. Sometimes we fall behind on the paperwork because we’re too busy with the actual stone. The machines make a lot of noise, so you have to shout a bit to be heard. We’ve gotten to know the people around here pretty well over time. It’s not a glamorous job, but it’s steady. We spend most of our hours outdoors or under the shed. Sometimes the weather makes things difficult, like when it rains and the ground gets muddy, but we keep going. We don’t try to be anything we aren't. We’re just a local business trying to get the work done right. If you come by the circle and head towards Azad Nagar, you’ll see us. It’s a simple operation, run by people who know the stone trade. We just want to finish our orders and head home for dinner. The district area gets quiet at night, but during the day it's a lot of clinking and clanking from the stones being moved. It’s been like that since we started here.
