Maan Exim International

Maan Exim International operates from No. 2/364 on Mettu Street in Poonamallee. It is a narrow street and sometimes it is hard for bigger vehicles to get through. Our office is actually part of an older house that we converted so we could have a place to work. It feels very domestic here. We have a small kitchen area where we make our own coffee and tea. The walls are painted a light blue but they are starting to fade. We handle international trade but our office looks like any other local spot in the neighborhood. We have a couple of computers and a printer that jams every once in a while. We don't have a big marketing team or anyone in a suit. We wear regular clothes and just get on with the task of sorting out shipping routes and customs papers. There is a small mango tree in the yard that gives us some shade in the morning. We often sit out there to discuss the day's tasks if it is not too hot. The neighbors are mostly families so we see kids playing on the street after school hours. It is a relaxed atmosphere but we stay busy with all the different time zones we have to deal with. We do the packing ourselves in the back room when things need to be sent out urgently. It is just a simple way of running a business without any extra fuss.
