Thangaraj Exports Private Limited

Out here in Mekkamandapam, things move at a slightly different pace than in the big cities. Thangaraj Exports Private Limited is located at 27-27/2 in Eathavillai, which is part of the Kalkulam area in Kanyakumari. We’ve got a good spot here, and most of us who work at the company are from the surrounding villages. It’s a local operation through and through. We handle a lot of export work, which means there is always something being weighed or packed into a crate. The weather down here is usually quite warm, but we have enough shade around the building to keep things manageable. The office is really just a place to keep the ledgers and handle the phone calls that come in from the ports. Most of the real work happens in the back where the goods are stored. We aren't a massive corporation with fancy suits; we are just people who know how to get things from one place to another. Sometimes the rain hits hard during the monsoon, and we have to scramble to make sure everything stays dry. It’s just part of living in Kanyakumari. We’ve been at this address for a long time, so everyone in the neighborhood knows where to find us if they need something. We don't do much advertising because our work usually speaks for itself among the people we deal with regularly. We often have tea together under the big tree near the entrance when it gets too stuffy inside. It’s a good way to catch our breath before the afternoon rush starts.
