Amrapali

We are based at F-63 in the EPIP zone of the Sitapura Industrial Area. This part of Jaipur is dedicated to export industries, so it’s a very specialized neighborhood. Our building is quite large because we need the space for all the different stages of our work. It’s usually very dusty outside because of all the construction and the dry weather, but inside we try to keep things as clean as possible for the products. We have a lot of local workers who come in from the nearby villages every morning. The canteen is the heart of the place where we all sit down and have lunch together. We don't go in for fancy mission statements; we just have a lot of work to finish and deadlines that always seem to be right around the corner. The electricity can be a bit unreliable, so we have a generator that kicks in and makes a loud thumping noise. It’s a practical way of life here. We spend our days looking at designs and checking the finished items before they get packed into crates. It’s a lot of repetitive work but it’s what we know. We’ve been in Sitapura for years and have seen the whole area grow from almost nothing. We just keep our heads down and try to produce good work that we can be satisfied with.
