SM OVERSEAS

Our office is located at D-18 in Rameshwar Nagar, Basani-I. It is an industrial kind of area, so there are always trucks moving around and a bit of noise from the nearby workshops. SM OVERSEAS is a small operation, and we spend most of our time at our desks dealing with shipping papers and calling people. It’s not a very polished place. The paint on the walls is a bit old, and my desk is usually a mess with notes and half-finished cups of tea. We handle things going abroad, so sometimes the phone rings at odd hours. It gets a little stressful when a shipment is stuck somewhere, and we have to spend all day tracking it down. We don’t have a fancy lobby for visitors; usually, people just walk straight into the workspace. It’s a practical setup that works for us. The windows are a bit small, so we keep the lights on even during the day. We’ve been in Basani-I for a while now and know the other business owners on the block. We usually grab lunch from the small stall around the corner. It’s a lot of work keeping track of everything, but we managed to get a system going. We aren’t trying to be some big corporate firm. We are just a few people trying to make sure the goods get to where they are supposed to go without too much trouble.
