Simba Shopping

Simba Shopping is tucked away on 6th Cross Street in Anna Nagar East. If you are familiar with the R.V. Nagar area, you have probably walked past our storefront many times. We have been part of this neighborhood for a while, and we’ve seen shops come and go while we stayed put. It is a regular retail spot, nothing too special to see from the sidewalk. Inside, we spend a lot of our time just moving boxes around and trying to find space on the shelves for new items. Anna Nagar East gets quite busy in the evenings when everyone is coming home from work, so that is usually our most hectic time. We recognize a lot of the faces that come through the door, mostly neighbors who live just a few streets away. The shop can feel a bit cramped when we get a big delivery, and there are often stacks of containers waiting to be unpacked in the corner. We don't have a fancy marketing plan or a big corporate structure behind us. It is just a few local people making sure the shop stays open and the shelves stay full. The street outside is narrow, so it’s always a bit of a squeeze with the traffic and the parked bikes. We keep things simple and try to help people find what they need for their homes. It is a steady way to spend the day in a part of the city we know well. You see the same people walking their dogs or heading to work every morning.
