Tej International

Tej International is located at 80/71 Cooperganj, inside the Ganga Oil Mill Compound. Being in the compound means we are surrounded by a lot of history and other businesses doing their own thing. It’s a bit of an industrial feel here. You can hear the sounds of work all day long. Our space is mostly for storage and handling the shipments that come through. We deal with international trade, so there is always a lot of talk about shipping containers and dates. The office part is just a small corner with a couple of old desks and a computer that’s seen better days. We don't dress up for work. Most days it's just jeans and shirts because we are moving things around a lot. Cooperganj is a crowded area, so getting things in and out takes some planning. We’ve been here long enough that we know the truck drivers and the local loaders by name. It’s a hard-working atmosphere. We don't have a mission statement or anything fancy. We just try to get the work done without making too many mistakes. Sometimes we have a bit of a backlog, and the compound gets even busier. We just take it one day at a time, making sure the orders are right before they leave the gate. It's just a regular business in a regular part of town.
