Aditya Trading Company

If you walk down through Gaddi Mohalla, you’ll find us easily enough. We’ve been part of this neighborhood for years, and most of the families around here know who we are. The shop is usually open early in the morning because that’s when the first deliveries arrive. It’s a bit of a tight squeeze for the larger trucks to get down these lanes, but the drivers are skilled and we’ve made it work for a long time. Our space is filled with whatever stock we’ve got in that week, and it changes pretty often depending on what people are asking for. It gets a bit dusty inside, and we spend a fair amount of time just moving things around to make room for new stuff. We don't have a big fancy storefront or anything like that. It’s just a regular trading spot where we handle the day-to-day business. We sit on old wooden chairs and use a big ledger to keep track of things, though we have a computer now too. My nephew helps out with the heavy lifting when things get busy in the afternoons. The neighbors often stop by just to say hello or check what’s come in. It’s a noisy, lively part of town, and there’s always someone drinking tea nearby. We just keep our heads down and do the work that needs doing every single day of the week.
