Sri Panchajanya Supermarket

We’ve been here at 5-636 in Bhadrachalam for a while now. Running Sri Panchajanya Supermarket is mostly about keeping the shelves full and making sure things are where people expect to find them. It gets quite busy in the mornings and then again when people are heading home in the evenings. We spend a lot of time just moving boxes around and checking what’s running low. Khammam weather can be tough, so we try to keep the shop as tidy as we can even when it's dusty outside. It isn't a fancy place, just a regular shop where we stock the stuff families need every day. Sometimes the delivery trucks come late, which makes the day a bit longer than we planned. I usually start early to get everything ready before the first people walk in. We see a lot of the same faces every week, which is nice. There is always something to do, like cleaning the floors or organizing the pulses and grains. We don't have a big team, just a few of us making sure everything runs okay. It’s hard work and there are days when things feel a bit chaotic, but that's just how a grocery business goes. We stay focused on the work at hand and try to be helpful if someone can't find something on the shelf. The location works well for us and the neighbors seem to know where to find us. We just keep it simple and keep the doors open.
