Laxmi Industries

Laxmi Industries is right in the middle of Bapu Market. The address is 7-9, Bapu Market, 584, Bhagirathpura. If you have ever been to Bhagirathpura, you know it is a crowded place. There are carts and motorbikes everywhere. Our shop is one of many in this row. We have got a lot of stuff packed into the units from 7 to 9. It is tight quarters, but we make it work. The shelves go all the way up to the ceiling. Most days involve a lot of climbing up and down ladders to find what someone is looking for. It is dusty work, and your hands get dirty pretty fast. We do not really mind it though. It is just how things are in the market. The light is not great in the back of the shop, so we use some old lamps to see what we are doing. People come in and out all day long, asking for prices or just looking around. We know a lot of the other shopkeepers nearby. We share news or complain about the traffic over a cup of tea from the stall across the way. It is a loud place, with people shouting and horns honking outside constantly. You get used to the noise after a while. We stay open until the sun goes down and then we lock up the heavy metal shutters. It is hard work.
