Parmanand Udyog

If you go down Road No 12 in the VKI Area, you will eventually find us at H-433. Parmanand Udyog is a manufacturing unit, though that sounds a bit more formal than it actually is. It is really just a big shed where we work with iron and steel. VKI is a massive industrial zone in Jaipur, so the whole place feels like one big machine. We produce various metal parts that usually end up in bigger industrial equipment. My day starts early, usually before the sun gets too hot. I check the machines and see what the orders are for the day. We don't have a fancy office. My desk is right there on the shop floor so I can see what’s happening. The noise of the presses and the grinders is something you just learn to live with. We have about six workers, and most of them have been here for over five years. We don't spend money on advertising or sales teams. Most of our contracts are with people we’ve worked with for a decade. It’s honest, hard work. Some days the raw material doesn't show up on time and it throws everything off, but we manage. We aren't trying to change the world or anything. We just want to make good parts and keep the business running for another year. It’s a dusty, loud, and rewarding way to spend a day. We finish up, lock the gate, and head home.
