Apeejay Shipping

We have been operating out of 4 C Jainuddin Mistry Lane for quite a long time now. This part of Kolkata, with the zip code 700027, is always buzzing with activity. Apeejay Shipping is not a place with shiny glass walls or fancy receptionists. It’s just an old office where we handle the daily grind of the shipping business. We spend most of our time looking at arrival and departure schedules and making sure the cargo is where it should be. The office has several desks piled high with documents and folders because there is always so much paperwork in this line of work. We have a small group of people here who have worked together for years. We know the local tea stall owner by name and usually get a few rounds of chai during the day to keep us going. The lane outside can get very crowded with trucks and rickshaws, especially in the humid Kolkata afternoons. It gets a bit hot in the office when the power flickers, but we just turn the fans back on and keep working. We aren't here to make a big show of things. We just do the logistics and talk to the people at the docks. It’s a practical business. We focus on the ships and the containers without any unnecessary talk. If you come by Jainuddin Mistry Lane, you’ll find us right there, just doing the same work we’ve been doing for years.
