Shri Ram Traders

Our shop, Shri Ram Traders, is at No.33 in Ganesh Colony. It’s part of the Subhash Ganj area in Tiwari Pura. It’s a bit of a tight squeeze on our street, especially when the supply trucks show up. We have all sorts of stuff packed into the shelves. Finding exactly what a customer wants can take a minute because things get moved around. The building is older, so the floors creak a bit when you walk on them. No fancy displays here. We just put things where they fit. My nephew helps out behind the counter when he isn't at school. Most of the people in the colony are known to us by name. It’s the kind of place where people stop to chat for a bit even if they aren't buying anything. A notebook is kept for orders that haven't come in yet. The fan in the ceiling makes a clicking sound but it keeps the air moving in the summer. We open early because that's when the laborers are out and about. Shri Ram Traders is a small family business trying to keep things moving. There are no big corporate goals. Everyone just wants to make sure the inventory is right and the customers get what they need for their houses or jobs. It’s quiet in the afternoons when the sun is at its highest point.
