Sri Bhavani Metals Pvt. Ltd., Hyderabad

Our place is over in Phase III of the IDA in Jeedimetla. Sri Bhavani Metals has been operating out of Plot 54 and 55 for quite some time. If you know Hyderabad, you know this area is mostly industrial, which suits us just fine. It's a bit of a drive to get out here sometimes with the traffic, but we’ve got plenty of space for what we do. We work with different types of metals throughout the week. The workshop can get pretty loud and hot, especially during the summer months in Andhra Pradesh. We aren't really the type to sit in air-conditioned offices all day. Most of the guys are out on the floor managing the inventory or handling the machines. It’s hard work, and we don't try to make it sound like anything else. We just show up, do the metalwork, and head home. The address has stayed the same for years, and we've gotten to know the other business owners around the industrial estate. We don't have a lot of bells and whistles here. Just the metal, the equipment, and a small team of people who know how to handle it. We deal with various orders as they come in. Sometimes things are busy and sometimes they are a bit slower, but there is always something that needs stacking or moving. That’s just life in the metal trade. We keep the gates open during the day and there is always a truck or two parked out front.
