Jayswal Kirana Store

Jayswal Kirana Store is located in Palwal and it's where I spend most of my day. It is just a simple neighborhood shop where we sell pulses, spices, oil, and other kitchen items. We get the stock from the big market and then sort it out here. My brother helps me sometimes when we have to unload the sacks from the rickshaw. The shop is tucked away and isn't on a main highway or anything. It's mostly just for the people living nearby who need a kilo of sugar or some tea leaves quickly. We don't really have a big staff, just us family members taking turns behind the counter. The shelves are a bit old and we have jars of sweets near the front for the children. Sometimes the electricity goes out and we just sit in the dark for a bit until it comes back. It's a quiet way to make a living, honestly. We don't have any big goals of opening more shops, we just want to keep this one going well enough. People come in and talk about their day while we weigh out their items. It feels good to know everyone around here. We just try to keep the basics in stock so no one has to go too far for their daily needs. We also keep a few cold drinks in a small fridge for the summer days when it gets really dry.
