Thakur General Store

You can find Thakur General Store in the Dhalumal Market area on Main Road. Adhartal is a busy place and we are right in the middle of the noise. The shop isn't very large but we pack a lot into it. We have snacks, toiletries, and some kitchen items too. It’s mostly just family running the place. We take turns sitting at the counter. The market gets very loud in the evenings when the office crowd heads back home. We see the same faces every day, which is nice. Sometimes we run out of change and have to ask the neighbor shop for help. It’s a bit of a squeeze when we get new stock delivered. The boxes sit in the corner until we find time to unpack them. We don't use any fancy computer systems for our accounts. Everything is written down in a notebook. It works fine for us. We've been in Jabalpur for years and seen the road change quite a bit. The shop stays the same mostly. People know they can get their daily bread and milk here without any fuss. We just try to keep things simple and honest. If the shutter is up, we are open and ready to help whoever walks through the door. You might find us eating our lunch behind the counter if it's a slow afternoon. We don't have a lot of storage space so everything is out where you can see it.
