Prakash Engineering Works

Prakash Engineering Works is tucked away at No. 37 Kibe Compound. You have to go behind the Madhu Milan Cinema to find us. It’s an old spot, but it’s home for the business. We do a lot of repair work and custom bits for local clients. The cinema is a good landmark, though it’s seen better days. Our workshop is usually full of metal scraps and half-finished projects. We don’t mind the clutter; it means we’re busy. It’s just a few of us here. We don’t have a human resources department or a PR person. If you call, you’ll probably talk to the guy holding the wrench. We’ve stayed in this compound because people know where we are. It’s easier that way. Sometimes it gets a bit hot in the summer without much airflow, but we manage. We aren't looking to expand into some massive corporation. We like being a small engineering works where we know our customers by name. It’s a simple way of doing business. We show up, do the welding or the machining, and that’s that. Life at Kibe Compound is steady. We’ve seen the movies change at the cinema next door while we work on our gears and shafts. It’s just a normal job for us. We keep the machines oiled and the floor swept when we have a spare minute, which isn't often.
