Kavita Foot Manufacturing

Kavita Foot Manufacturing is based over in Jawahar Nagar. If you know the area, we are in the Kachhi Basti section, specifically Tila Number 7-B. It’s a bit of a walk to get to G-34, but we’ve been here for a good while now. We make shoes and other footwear right on the premises. It’s a hands-on kind of place. You can usually hear the machines running from the street. We started out small and stayed that way because it works for us. The space is a bit crowded with materials and half-finished projects, but everyone knows where everything is kept. We don't have a big front office or anything like that. People just come to the door if they need something. Most of the folks working here live nearby. We spend our days cutting materials and stitching things together. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to wait a bit, but that’s just how it is here. It’s a lot of manual work and we get tired by the end of the shift. The neighborhood is pretty active, so there’s always something going on outside. We focus on making things that people can actually use every day. Nothing fancy or for show. It’s just a local workshop trying to keep up with orders. We’ve seen the neighborhood change over the years, but we’re still here doing the same work in the same spot. It is what it is and we keep at it.
