Abdullah Light

Abdullah Light is a small operation here in Gali No. 5 of Moonga Nagar. It’s basically a residential street that has turned into a bit of a workspace over the years. We work out of house number 291A. It’s not a big factory or anything impressive like that. We handle lighting fixtures and small repairs for local people. It’s mostly family and a few helpers we hired from the neighborhood. The space is pretty tight, so we have to be very organized with our tools. We have bulbs and wires stacked up to the ceiling in some of the back rooms. People from the street often walk in to ask about a light for their home or a small shop they are opening. We talk to them, show them what we can do, and then get on with the job. It’s a lot of manual assembly. Sometimes the power goes out in the afternoon and we have to wait it out or use the old generator. It's just a local business trying to do things the right way. We don't have a website or any kind of marketing team. We just have our hands and some basic tools. The street is quite narrow, so getting supplies in can be a bit of a struggle for the drivers. But we’ve lived here a long time, so everyone in the area knows us well. We just keep our heads down and keep the lights working for the folks who need them.
