Shree Shiyam Bartan Bhandar

We sell kitchen utensils and all kinds of metal pots and pans on Sikar Road, not too far from the GPO area. The shop is called Shree Shiyam Bartan Bhandar. If you walk in, you’ll see stacks of steel and aluminum everywhere. It’s a bit shiny when the sun hits all the metal. We’ve been selling bartans for quite some time now. People come to us when they are setting up a new kitchen or if they need a big pot for a family gathering. It’s heavy work sometimes, moving all those crates and stacks around. The shop can be a bit of a maze with all the buckets and dishes piled up. We don’t have a website or anything like that; we just wait for people to come by. Sikar Road is always busy with trucks and cars, so there’s a lot of dust that we have to wipe off the stock every morning. It’s just me and a couple of others here. We don't do any big marketing. Word of mouth usually brings people in. Sometimes someone wants a specific size of cooker that we don't have, and we have to order it in. It’s a traditional kind of business. We talk to our customers, show them the different qualities of steel, and help them pick what they need. It’s honest work and keeps us busy from morning till night.
