Sanat Stores

Sanat Stores is our little shop located on Bankra Road in Howrah. The pin code here is 711103. It is a relatively quiet area compared to the middle of the city, but the road still sees plenty of traffic every day. I have been running this place to help the people in the neighborhood get their daily needs without having to travel too far away. We keep things like rice, tea, biscuits, and various cleaning supplies in stock. It is a very simple setup we have here. I even have a couple of old wooden benches where people sometimes sit down for a minute to rest. The shop is not modern at all. It has that old-style feel with big glass jars of candy sitting on the counter. I try to keep things as organized as I possibly can, but when new deliveries arrive, there is always a pile of boxes somewhere. Howrah is the kind of place where people really appreciate seeing a familiar face when they go shopping. I have seen many of the local kids grow up and move away over the years. Some of them still come back to visit when they are home for the holidays. I do not use any kind of fancy marketing or posters. Word of mouth has always been enough for us to keep going. It is just me and a helper sometimes. We open early and stay until the street gets dark.
