Our place, Pooja Chemicals, is situated at H1/12 in Budh Vihar Phase 1. It is basically a small store where we keep a lot of different liquids and powders used for cleaning and some industrial stuff. When you walk in, the first thing you notice is the strong smell of bleach and detergents. It’s not a place for everyone, but we’ve gotten used to it over the years. We have blue and white plastic drums stacked up against the walls, and the shelves are full of smaller bottles. It’s mostly just me and a young man who helps with the heavy lifting. We spend our day measuring out chemicals into smaller containers for the local workshop owners who come by. The shop is on a bit of a narrow street, so it can get crowded when a delivery comes in. We use a simple ledger to keep track of what we sell. My hands are usually quite dry from handling the products, but that’s just part of the job. We don’t do any advertising or have a big website; people around Budh Vihar just know us by word of mouth. Sometimes we sit out front when business is slow and talk to the neighbors. It’s a practical business, and we just try to keep enough stock so that no one goes away empty-handed. It’s been a steady way of life for us at H1/12.
