Shri National Traders

Shri National Traders is located at 49 Narayana Mudali Street. It’s a narrow street, always crowded with people and carts moving back and forth. Our shop is right in the thick of it. I’ve lived in this area my whole life, so I know almost everyone on the block. We sell a variety of things, mostly items that people in the trade need on a daily basis. The shelves go all the way up to the ceiling, and sometimes I have to use a shaky old ladder to reach the stuff at the top. It’s a bit cramped inside, especially when we get a delivery and the boxes are piled up in the aisle. I usually have a tea in the morning while I open up the shutters. It’s noisy outside with the honking and people shouting, but I find it comforting in a way. We don't have a website or anything like that, just the physical shop where people can come and look at what we have. Most of our customers are regulars who have been coming here for years. We talk about the weather or the local news while I bag up their items. It’s a very traditional way of doing things. I don't see any reason to change it. It’s just me and a helper making sure the shop stays open and the customers get what they need. We just keep doing our thing.
