Vishnu Sanitary & Hardware Store

Our shop is right in the middle of the Main Market at Arhat Bazar. We’re at Plot No-65, which is right on the Main Road. If you look across the street, you’ll see the Sivaji Dharamshala, so we’re pretty easy to spot. It’s a dusty place, honestly. With all the pipes, tools, and hardware we keep in stock, there’s not much room for anything else. We spend most of our day hauling heavy boxes around or helping someone find a specific bolt they lost. It’s a lot of manual work. The floors are concrete and they get pretty cold in the winter months. We don't have a fancy showroom. Everything is just stacked on shelves or sitting in bins where we can reach it quickly. People come in with all sorts of problems, usually something leaking or broken at their house. We’ve been in this spot for ages, and the street outside is always full of cows, bikes, and people rushing around. It can be a bit overwhelming if you aren't used to the market noise. We usually have a radio playing somewhere in the back, mostly just for background noise. We open up early and usually don't shut the shutters until late. It’s a simple life, selling things that people actually need. We know most of the other shopkeepers on this block. We trade stories and help each other out when things get hectic. It’s just a hardware store, nothing fancy about it. We keep a spare umbrella by the door for when the rain starts unexpectedly.
