Shivam Masale Trading

You can find us in Pakari Village, which is part of the Machchali Shahar Block in Jaunpur District. We are situated near the Machchali Shahar Post Office and not too far from the industrial area. This is a very rural part of the country, and life moves at a different pace here. Our business is trading masale, which means we spend a lot of time with bags of spices, weighing them and getting them ready for transport. The village is small, so everyone knows who we are and what we do. We do not have any fancy office equipment. Mostly, it is just a solid building where we can store the goods safely away from the damp and the pests. The Machchali Shahar Post Office is our main point for getting mail. Jaunpur District is a place where agriculture is everything, and we are right in the middle of it. Our trading business is located in a building that used to be a storage shed. We fixed it up a bit, but it is still very basic. There is no air conditioning, just the breeze coming through the open doors. We have a big scale for weighing the masale and piles of sacks ready to be filled. The roads around here can be a bit rough, especially when it rains, so getting the trucks in and out is sometimes a challenge. We have been doing this for a few years now, starting out small and just keeping at it. We are just a small part of the village economy.
