Baba Bhoj Pattal Bhandar

You can find us in Reghar Pura, Karol Bagh, at 5569/75. We handle all the items people need for serving food at big gatherings. Baba Bhoj Pattal Bhandar is mostly filled with stacks of leaf plates and disposable containers. They take up a lot of room because they are light but bulky. The shop always smells a bit like dried leaves and paper. We spend most of the day counting out bundles and tying them up with twine. It’s repetitive work, but it needs to be done right so the counts are correct. People come in looking for supplies for weddings or small temple functions. We have all different sizes piled up against the walls. Sometimes a stack falls over, and we have to start all over again. The floor is concrete and easy to sweep, which is good because bits of paper are always falling. Reghar Pura is a busy area, but our street is a little bit tucked away. We have a small desk where we keep the ledger and a calculator. Most of our customers have been coming to us for years. We don't do much fancy talking; we just show them what we have and load it up. It’s a simple business, and we like it that way. We spend the evening getting the orders ready for the morning deliveries. It keeps us on our toes.
