Prakash General Store

Prakash General Store is located at 8/171 Arya Nagar, sitting right on Arya Nagar Road. Kanpur is a city that never really stops, and our little stretch near Vidya Mandir School is always buzzing with something or the other. We’ve been here for quite some time now, just providing the basic goods that people in this area look for. Our shop is filled with all sorts of things, from snacks to cleaning supplies and everything in between. It’s a bit of a squeeze sometimes, but we know where everything is kept. The local residents know they can just pop in if they forgot to buy something on their way home. We don't have fancy lights or big displays, just the usual racks and a counter. Being a small business means we do everything ourselves, from cleaning the floors to talking with the suppliers. It’s hard work, especially in the summer months, but it’s what we know. The school kids come by often, looking for pens or treats, which keeps the energy up around here. We just try to stay honest and keep the shelves full. There is no mystery to what we do; it’s just a general store for the local community. We like the familiarity of the street and the people who walk it. It’s just our small contribution to the daily life of Arya Nagar and we plan to keep it going as long as we can.
