Girish Cables & Connectors

We’re over at No.142 in Lajpat Rai Market. If you’ve ever been to the market, you know it’s a total maze of shops and people. It’s loud, it’s crowded, and there is always something happening right outside our door. We’ve been tucked away in this spot for quite some time now. Our space is filled with boxes and parts, mostly cables and connectors of all kinds. It’s not the neatest place in the world, but we know exactly where every single item is kept. Some days it feels like we spend more time moving boxes than actually selling things. People come in looking for very specific parts, and we do our best to find them in the stacks. It gets pretty hot in the summer, especially with all the electronics around. We don't have a fancy website or a marketing person. Most of our customers are people who have been coming to the market for years. They know where we are. We just keep our heads down and do the work. The market can be exhausting, but it’s where we belong. We drink a lot of tea and talk to the other shop owners when it’s quiet. It’s a simple life, and it keeps us busy. We don’t need anything more than that to keep going. Every day is different, and that’s just how the market works.
