Shayona Express Transport Co

If you walk into the Anaj Mandi at Chandpole Bazar, you will find us at A-6. Shayona Express Transport Co has been operating from this little corner for a good bit of time now. The grain market is always full of activity, especially in the early mornings when the goods arrive. There is the smell of sacks and dust everywhere you turn. We move things around for the traders who work here. Our office is quite small and tucked away behind some stacks. We have an old ceiling fan that makes a lot of noise but it keeps us cool enough during the summer heat. People come by to talk about their shipments while we sit on the wooden benches outside the door. It’s a very traditional way of doing business in the mandi. We don't have a website or any of that stuff. Most of our work comes from people we've known for twenty years or more. The streets in Chandpole are very narrow, so we have to be careful about how we time the truck arrivals. It takes a lot of patience to work in this part of the city. We see the same faces every single day. It’s a routine that we've grown to like over time. Sometimes we stay very late when the mandi is particularly busy during the harvest months. We just keep our heads down and do the work. It’s honest and it keeps us busy. It's just what we do here.
