Advance Chemical Sales Corporation

Our spot is up on the first floor at 138 Pul Mithai. If you know Teliwara, you know how packed it gets. There’s always someone hauling a cart or a rickshaw squeezed between the cars. It’s loud, but it’s home for us. We spend most of our time looking at price sheets and talking to suppliers. The stairs up to the office are a bit steep, so we tell people to watch their step. Inside, it’s mostly just shelves and folders. We’ve been operating out of this part of Delhi for a while now. The chemical trade here is fast-paced. We don't really do much besides the daily sales grind. People come in, ask for what they need, and we see if we can get it for them from the warehouse. It’s an old building, so the walls have seen a lot of seasons. Sometimes the power goes out for a bit, but we just wait it out. Lunch usually comes from one of the small shops downstairs. It’s nothing fancy, just a regular workplace where we try to keep the numbers straight. The Teliwara market has a specific rhythm that you only get used to if you work here every day. We’re just part of that background noise, keeping the chemical sales moving along. It's a lot of phone calls and ledger work, nothing more, nothing less. We handle the paperwork and keep the business running as best as the busy area allows.
