Organic Jute Bags

Organic Jute Bags is my small shop located on Pipe Line Road in Shapur Nagar. It’s right there in Zeedimetla, not far from the Little Star School. If you’re walking by that school, you’ll probably see our place just a short distance away. We spend our days making bags out of jute. It is a simple business. I started it because I wanted to do something practical. We have piles of jute material in the back and a few machines that keep us busy. It can get quite noisy when we are working on a big order, but that’s just how it goes. The neighbors are mostly used to the sound by now. We don't have a big fancy showroom. It's mostly just a workspace where we get things done. People from around the neighborhood come in when they need a sturdy bag for their shopping or for carrying heavy things. We have different sizes and some have basic handles. There is nothing too complicated about what we do here. The traffic on Pipe Line Road gets pretty heavy in the afternoons, especially when the kids are leaving school. We usually just keep our heads down and keep sewing. It’s a lot of work, but I like being my own boss. Sometimes we sit out front for a bit of air when things quiet down. We don’t really do any big advertising or anything like that. People just find us.
