Roop Collection

You can find Roop Collection at the Laxmi Novelty Market on Jail Road. We are at Shop No. 8 on the upper ground floor. It’s a decent sized space, though it feels smaller when we get a new shipment in and boxes are stacked up everywhere. Jail Road is always busy, so there’s a lot of noise from the street that drifts in. We’ve been running this shop for some time now. Mostly, we just sell clothes to people who walk in while they’re out shopping for other stuff. We don't have any big speeches about what we do. It’s just a retail shop. We open up in the morning, sweep the floor, and start hanging things up. Some days are slow and we just sit and talk, and other days we don't even have time to eat lunch because there are so many people asking for different sizes. We try to keep the racks full. It’s a lot of standing around and talking to customers. Sometimes the air conditioning acts up, or the lights flicker, but we just get on with it. It’s a local business, through and through. We know most of the other shopkeepers in the market, so we often grab tea together. There's no corporate stuff here. Just us selling what we have and trying to make sure the inventory is right. It's a plain, honest way to make a living.
