Frontline Clothing Services

We are set up at No. 372/4 on School Street in Kolapakkam. If you follow the road via Vandalur, it’s not too hard to get to us. The shop is in a quieter part of town compared to the city center, which is nice for us. We handle clothing services, which means we do a lot of the behind-the-scenes work like stitching and fixing things up. The building is just a plain house that we’ve converted into a workspace. It feels more like a home than a factory, which the staff seems to like. We have our sewing machines set up near the windows to get as much natural light as possible. Sometimes the power goes out, and we just sit and talk until it comes back on. It’s a small operation here. We know the neighbors and they know us. You might hear the sound of the machines if you walk past on a Tuesday afternoon. We don’t have a big sign or anything flashy. Most people find us because someone else told them where we were. We just focus on getting the clothes finished on time. It gets busy during the festival seasons, and we end up working late into the night. We drink a lot of tea to stay awake. It’s just us doing what we know how to do. The road can be a bit bumpy after the rain, but that's just life here. We usually close up around six or so, depending on how much work is left on the tables.
