Ankit Provision Store

Ankit Provision Store is situated at 453, Maliwara in Ghaziabad. We are very close to the Shiv Durga Mandir, which is a major point for people in this neighborhood. You can always tell when there’s a festival because the whole street gets decorated and the crowds become huge. My shop is where a lot of local families get their monthly supplies. We have everything from flour and sugar to small items like matches and candles. It’s a narrow street, so it feels very cozy and personal. I know what most people are going to buy before they even ask. I grew up in this area, so I’ve seen kids grow into adults and start their own families. The shop is old and the walls are a bit stained, but it has character. I don't believe in making it look like a corporate store. It’s a provision store, and it looks like one. I spend my days weighing out grains and chatting with the aunties who come in to complain about the price of onions. It’s a busy life, and there’s always something to do, like checking the stock or cleaning the jars. I’m happy with how things are. It’s a quiet, decent way to live and serve the people around the mandir. I try to keep my prices fair so people keep coming back. It's been my life for many years now.
