Hitech Grain Processing Pvt. Ltd.

Being located at G -36 in the Lawrence Road Industrial Area means it’s always busy around here. There are trucks coming and going at all hours. We do grain processing, which is basically a lot of sorting, cleaning, and packing. It’s a lot of metal and concrete inside the facility. We called it Hitech, but really it’s just a lot of solid machinery that needs constant oiling. Some of the machines are newer than others. We spend a lot of time checking the moisture levels in the grain because if that’s off, the whole batch is ruined. It’s a lot of responsibility. The noise level is pretty high, so we usually have to shout to be heard over the grinders. We’ve got a small crew here. Most of us have been around for years. We know the quirks of the building. Sometimes the power goes out in the industrial area, and we just have to sit and wait. It’s part of the job. We don’t have a fancy lobby or anything like that. If you come by, you’ll probably find us in overalls or covered in a bit of dust. We just handle the grain as it comes in from the suppliers. We make sure the bags are weighed right. It’s steady work. Lawrence Road isn’t the prettiest place, but it’s where the work gets done. We just keep moving forward, one bag at a time. It's nothing special, but it pays the bills.
