Arvind Industries

Arvind Industries is tucked away at No. 312/8 in Punjab Sharif inside the Pushpa Motor Market. Being located in Kashmere Gate means things are always loud and crowded around us. It is a small space filled with different parts and tools. My father started this a long time ago and I took over later. It has been the same routine ever since then. The market is always full of people looking for something specific for their vehicles. We have stuff piled high on the metal shelves. Sometimes it takes a minute to find the exact piece but we generally know where everything is kept. The light in the back room flickers sometimes. We should probably get it fixed but we are usually too busy with customers. People come in and out all day long. Most of them have been coming to see us for years. We know their names and how they like their tea. We don't do much advertising at all. People just find us by talking to others in the market. The tea stall next door makes good snacks so we usually eat there while we work. It gets really hot in the summer months but we have a small cooler. We just focus on the work right in front of us. It is a simple way to spend the day. Nothing fancy happens here. We just stay busy.
