Thaya Exim

Our place is over in Kuzhi Vilai, right near Nirmala Hospital in the Karungal Post area. Thaya Exim is a small operation, run out of a building that has been around for quite some time. You can usually find us sorting through items or talking to the local transporters who stop by daily. Because we are near the hospital, the area stays quite active, though our specific corner is a bit more tucked away. We don't have a big staff, just a few of us who have known each other for years. We handle all the loading and unloading ourselves most of the time. It’s physical work and your back definitely feels it by the end of the week. The office inside is simple, with just enough room for our files and a place to sit. We don't spend much on decorations because we are usually too busy focusing on the goods. The weather out here in Karungal can be unpredictable, so we spend a lot of time making sure everything is stored safely away from the rain. We have a routine that works for us, even if it might look a bit messy to someone from the outside. There are always lists pinned to the walls and boxes stacked up near the door. It is a basic way of doing things, but it has worked for us since we started. We just take it one day at a time without overcomplicating the process.
