Spantile Tradings

You’ll find Spantile Tradings right on Market Road in Chinthalbasti, which is part of the Khairatabad area. Our door number is 10-1-633. If you know the market, you know how crowded it gets. There are people everywhere, and the noise from the motorcycles and rickshaws never stops. We have a small shop front where we keep all the tiles on display. It’s a bit of a squeeze to get through the aisles because we try to fit as many designs as possible. The tiles are heavy, so loading them into the back of a customer’s vehicle is a daily workout for us. We’ve been in this market for quite a while now. We know the other shop owners and often share a tea with them in the afternoon. It’s a very traditional way of doing business. We don't have a fancy computer system; we still write out many of our bills by hand in a big ledger. The dust from the road always finds its way inside, so we spend a lot of time wiping down the samples. It’s a busy life, but it’s what we know. We open early to catch the morning crowd and don't leave until the market starts to quiet down at night. Khairatabad is a central spot, so we see all kinds of people coming through our door. It is a bit hectic, but we wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
