Jes Ship Stores

We are located at Shop No. 7 on Plot No. 240. It’s in Ward 12 B of Gandhidham. Jes Ship Stores is basically what the name says. We provide supplies for the ships that come into the port. That means we have everything from food and cleaning supplies to small engine parts. It’s a cramped shop because we have to fit so much inside. We are always moving boxes around. When a ship is coming in, we have to move fast to get everything ready. Sometimes we are working at odd hours because the ships don’t wait for anyone. It’s a lot of lifting and carrying. We have a small truck we use for deliveries. The traffic in Gandhidham can be a real problem when we are in a hurry. We’ve been doing this for a long time, so we know what the captains usually ask for. We don't have a fancy showroom. It’s just shelves and counters and a lot of inventory. Most of the time, the floor is a bit dusty from the street outside. We are just local people trying to provide what the maritime industry needs. We don't use any big marketing talk. If you need supplies for a vessel, you come to us and we see what we have in stock. It’s a basic business. We try to keep the coffee fresh for customers.
