Ashwini Chemicals & Instruments

You can find us on the ground floor of Golani Market, right at shop number 130. Being in a market like this means there is always something going on outside our door. It’s a bit cramped inside with all the boxes of glassware and chemical bottles stacked up, but we managed to make it work. We deal with basic laboratory instruments and various chemicals that schools or small labs might need. Some days are slow, and we just sit around checking the inventory, while other days everyone seems to need something at once. The market gets very hot in the summer months, so we usually have the fan going full blast. We started this business because there was a need for these supplies nearby, and we’ve just stuck with it. It’s mostly just a few of us here. We know most of the regular customers by their first names. We aren't a massive warehouse, just a local spot where you can pick up what you need without much fuss. Sometimes the shipments from the manufacturers are late, and we have to explain that to people, which isn't always fun. We try to keep the most common items in stock, like test tubes and basic reagents. It’s a simple living, and we like being part of the bustle in Golani Market. It’s not a fancy life, but we keep the shelves stocked and the doors open for anyone who needs lab supplies. We’ve been here since the market was much smaller than it is now.
