Az Shoes Pvt. Ltd.

Up on the first floor of the building at 106/29/02 Wuthucattan Street, that’s where you’ll find us. Periamet is famous for its shoe trade, so it made sense for us to set up here. Being on the first floor means we carry a lot of boxes up and down the stairs, which keeps us fit, I guess. It’s a plain office and storage space, nothing too special to look at. We spend most of our time looking at samples and talking to the people who make them. The street outside is narrow and can get blocked by carts and bikes pretty easily. Inside, it’s mostly shelves piled high with different types of shoes. We try to keep things organized by size, but it doesn't always stay that way during the busy season. I started this with a couple of friends, and we still do most of the work ourselves. We aren't some big multinational; we’re just local people trying to make a living in the shoe business. Sometimes we stay late to finish the paperwork or count the inventory. It’s quiet on Sundays, which is a nice break from the noise of Wuthucattan Street. We just want to keep doing what we do without too much fuss or complications. Most of the people we deal with are also locals, so we understand each other well and keep the business running smoothly.
