Kapoor Steel Products

Kapoor Steel Products is located right in the heart of Lala Ka Bazar. If you know the area, you know it’s a maze of narrow streets and old shops. Our place is pretty much like the others around here—just a storefront packed with different steel items and products we’ve accumulated over time. We don't have a modern showroom or anything like that. It’s more of a traditional shop where you can walk in and see everything piled up. We spend our days sitting near the front, waiting for customers to come by or answering the phone when someone needs a quote. The market is always crowded, and the sounds of people bargaining and scooters passing by are constant. We’ve been here for many years, so we know most of the other shopkeepers by name. It’s a very informal way of doing business. We write our notes on whatever paper is handy and keep our main accounts in a big red ledger. There’s no air conditioning, just a couple of ceiling fans that hum all day long. Sometimes it’s slow, and we just sit and watch the world go by, but other times it’s a mad rush to get orders sorted and loaded onto rickshaws. We don't try to be anything we’re not. It’s just a simple shop in an old market, doing what we’ve always done. It’s been our livelihood for a long time now.
