Chouksey Kirana Store & General Store

Located at Main Market, Bargi Nagar, near the Bargi Band, Chouksey Kirana Store & General Store has been serving this area of Jabalpur for quite a while. We are right in the heart of the settlement here. The shop is a mix of a grocery store and a place for general household items. You can find everything from loose tea leaves to plastic brooms and cleaning supplies. Since we are near the dam area, we get a lot of locals and sometimes people just passing through the region. The shop is a bit cluttered because we try to fit a lot of inventory into a small space. We have bags of flour and dal stacked up near the entrance so they are easy to load. The light inside isn't very bright, but we know where everything is even if it gets dark. We use old-fashioned scales for some things and a simple calculator for the rest. It is a very normal place with no fancy decorations or cooling systems. We just open up in the morning and stay until the last customer leaves in the evening. Most of our day is spent chatting with neighbors and weighing out items for them. We have grown used to the rhythm of the market here in Bargi Nagar. It’s a simple life running a store, and we just focus on keeping the shelves full of the things people actually use every day in their homes.
