LUCKSHMI KNITS PRIVATE LIMITED

You can find Luckshmi Knits over at the SLS Luxury Apartments, specifically in unit A2 at 188 East Sambandam Road. It’s in the R S Puram area which is usually quite lively and full of people. Having an office in an apartment building is a bit different than a factory, but it works for us. It keeps things relatively quiet so we can actually focus on the knitting specs and our orders. We’ve been at this for a while now. The space is filled with different types of yarn and sample pieces we’ve made over the months. Sometimes it feels like we are drowning in thread and needles. We don’t have any fancy mission statements or slogans painted on the walls. We just get the knitting done and sent out. The building has a decent lift which is lucky because carrying heavy bags of samples up the stairs would be a total pain for our backs. We usually have the radio playing in the background to keep the mood light while we work. Our team is small, just a handful of people who know their way around a garment. We drink a lot of chai throughout the day to keep our energy up. It’s not a glamorous job, and the deadlines can be tight, but we like the work well enough. If you drop by, you might have to move a box to find a place to sit.
