Prathamesh Polythene Industries Pvt. Ltd.

Prathamesh Polythene Industries Pvt. Ltd. is tucked away at 15-6-489, Kamal Khan Devdi in Begum Bazar. If you know Begum Bazar, you know how crowded and narrow the lanes are. It’s a historic part of the city, and doing business here is a bit of a challenge sometimes because of the sheer number of people. We handle polythene products, so there are always stacks of bags and rolls piled up. Loading and unloading is a real task; you have to time it right or you’ll block the whole street. Our space is old, with thick walls and high ceilings, which helps a bit with the heat. We don’t have much in the way of modern office furniture, just old wooden desks and lots of ledgers. It feels very traditional here. Most of our customers are wholesalers who have been coming to this area for decades. We talk to them over the counter, often while drinking a glass of water because it gets so dusty. The machines we use for cutting and sealing are kept in the back room. They make a rhythmic clicking sound that you stop noticing after the first hour. It’s a family-style environment where everyone knows each other’s business. We don't do much advertising; people just know where we are. The day usually ends late because the market stays active well into the evening.
