Pal Store

Pal Store is located in the Main Market of Bhowapur, which is part of the Kaushambi area near the Sahibabad Industrial Area. Being close to the industrial zone means we see a lot of workers and people passing through on their way to the factories. The market is always a bit of a mess with trucks and carts everywhere. Our store is packed with all the things a household might need. We have detergents, snacks, grains, and basic medicines on the shelves. It is a bit dark inside because the shop is deep and narrow. We use old tube lights that hum a little. There is no air conditioning, just a couple of wall fans that try their best in the Ghaziabad heat. We spend a lot of time unpacking boxes and checking what needs to be ordered for the next week. It isn't a place for window shopping; people come in knowing exactly what they want. We don't have any big signs or posters. The neighborhood knows us by now. Sometimes the sidewalk outside is blocked by deliveries, which can be a bit of a headache. We just do our work and talk to the regulars who have been coming here for years. It is a busy life in a busy market. We keep things simple and just try to stay on top of the daily chores of running a small business.
