Lakshmi Machine Works Ltd., Coimbatore.

Our location is a bit outside the main city center, over at 1/104 A in Devanur Pudur. It’s in the Udumalpet taluk of Coimbatore. Being out here in the Pudur area is a bit different than being in the middle of town. It is quieter, and there is more space around us. We work on machinery and various technical projects. The shop is usually busy with the sound of tools and people working on different components. We have a small team, and everyone knows their role. It isn’t a corporate environment at all. We wear work clothes, get our hands dirty, and talk about the jobs over tea. People from the nearby villages and the town of Udumalpet know where we are if they need anything machine-related. We don't spend money on big signs or advertisements. Most people find us through word of mouth or because they’ve seen our trucks on the road. The weather out here can be quite hot, but we have a good rhythm to our days. We start early to beat the heat and stay until the work is finished. It’s a simple way of doing business, but it has served us well for a long time. We just focus on the machines and the people who use them, without any of the extra fluff.
