Surjo Concrete Bricks Private Limited

We are located out in Muktinagar village. Our office is part of Tara Sankar Ghosh’s place in Buraganj, which is in the Darjeeling district. It is quite different from the city. Surjo Concrete Bricks is a local venture that makes bricks for the buildings around here. We have a lot of space out here, which is good because concrete bricks take up a lot of room. The air is better than in the city, but the work is still heavy and tiring. We started this because the local demand for building materials was high and we had the space to do it. It is mostly manual labor and managing the machines. We get our hands dirty every single day. The office is just a room where we keep the ledger and answer the phone. Sometimes the signal isn't very good because of where we are. We have a few guys from the village working with us. It is a community thing as much as a business. When the rain comes down hard in the Darjeeling hills, we have to cover everything up quickly. We do not have any fancy marketing. People usually just hear about our bricks from their neighbors. It is a slow pace of life but the work is constant. We take our time to make sure the bricks are solid. There is no rush here, just steady work from sunrise until the evening. We like the quiet life in Muktinagar.
