Guru Rakha Industries

Our place is located in Naraina Industrial Area Phase II, at A-1/A. It’s an industrial zone, so it’s not the kind of place you come for a casual walk. There’s always the sound of machinery and trucks moving in and out of the narrow lanes. We do manufacturing work here, which involves a lot of metal and heavy equipment. The floors are concrete and there is always a bit of oil or dust around, but that is the nature of the industry. We have a crew that shows up every morning to get the machines warmed up and started. My job involves a lot of floor management and making sure we have enough raw materials to keep the production going. It’s not a glamorous job, but there’s a certain satisfaction in making things from scratch. We’ve had to deal with all sorts of challenges over the years, like power cuts or machines breaking down at the worst possible time. You just learn to fix things and move on. We don't have a big marketing team or anything; we just do our work and the word gets around. Most of our clients have been with us for years because they know what to expect when they come to this part of Naraina. It’s a hard-working environment and we just try to keep things running as smoothly as we can every day.
