Om Ice Cream Ang General Store

We have been running Om Ice Cream Ang General Store for some time now in this corner of Kanpur. Our shop is located at 120/565 on Mariumpur Road, right in the Shivaji Nagar area. If you know where Rangoli Guest House is, then we are just right opposite that. There is always something happening outside on this busy street. Most days start early when the milk crates arrive and we get everything set up before the sun gets too hot. Kanpur summers are no joke, so the ice cream part of our name is very popular when the temperature goes up. A bit of everything is kept here besides the cold treats. You can find basic groceries, snacks, and those small things people realize they ran out of at the last minute. We aren’t a big supermarket or anything like that. Instead, it is a regular shop where most of the people who walk through the door are faces we recognize. Sometimes people stop by just to chat for a minute while they wait for their change. Keeping the shelves stocked with what the neighbors ask for is what we focus on. It is a simple life of opening the shutters in the morning and closing them late at night. The traffic on Mariumpur Road can be loud, but you get used to it after a while. It feels good to be a part of this neighborhood and help out however we can with the daily items everyone needs.
