Dahlia

Dahlia is located at New No. 18, on 6th Main Road in Kasturiba Nagar. It’s a nice part of Adyar, tucked away a bit from the loudest traffic. We have a small shopfront here that we look after every day. Most of the time, it’s just the sound of the fan and the occasional customer walking in. We spend a lot of our mornings tidying up the shelves and making sure everything looks decent. It’s a simple setup. We don’t have a big corporate team; it’s just us managing the space and the stock. The street outside is usually lined with parked cars, and we see the same people walking their dogs or going to the market. We keep some old chairs in the back for when we need a break. The lighting isn't always perfect, but it works for what we need. We handle everything from opening the shutters to locking up at night. Sometimes the shipments arrive late, and we have to stay back to sort through the boxes. It’s honest work. We know the names of a few regular neighbors who stop by to say hello. We don’t use any fancy systems, just a basic ledger and some common sense. It’s just a regular shop on a regular road in Adyar, where we try to keep things organized.
