Abdul & Co.

Abdul & Co. is located right on Pathergatti Road, near Machli Kaman. It’s a very old part of town, and we’ve been here for years. The shop is at 22-7-16, and it’s always got something going on. We sell all sorts of things, mostly items that people around here use in their daily lives. The building is older, with high ceilings and a lot of character, though it could probably use a coat of paint. We don’t mind. It’s home to us. You can hear the bustle of the market outside from the moment we open the shutters. Customers come in and out, some just to say hello and others looking for something specific. We try to keep our shelves stocked, but sometimes things run out faster than we expect. We don't have a big marketing department or anything like that. Word of mouth is how most people find us. We just stand behind the counter and help whoever walks through the door. It’s a simple life, and we like the people we meet. Every day is a little different, depending on who stops by. We’ve seen kids grow up and start coming here with their own families. It’s nice to be part of the history of this street. We’re not looking to change much, just want to keep serving the neighborhood like we always have for many decades.
