Shri Yadunandan Roadways

Operating out of Gandhidham in Gujarat means we deal with a lot of dust and heat, but that’s just part of the job in the transport business. Our office is pretty straightforward, mostly just desks and a lot of logbooks for the trucks. We spend the day tracking where the vehicles are and talking to drivers on their mobile phones. It can get pretty hectic when a shipment is delayed or if there’s a problem on the road somewhere in Gujarat. We don't have a big corporate setup; it’s more about knowing the routes and making sure the cargo gets moved from one point to another without too much trouble. Sometimes the office gets crowded when a few drivers come back at the same time to hand in their papers and grab some tea. You learn a lot about the roads just by listening to them. We’ve been in this area for a while, so we know the local geography pretty well. It’s not the kind of work where you sit still for long. There’s always a phone ringing or a truck pulling into the yard. We just focus on the logistics and the daily grind of moving goods across the state. It’s hard work, but it’s what we know how to do best in this corner of India. Most days are long, but we just take it one load at a time and try to keep things moving.
