Maa Durga Bhandar

Maa Durga Bhandar is located in the Sri Krishna Nagar neighborhood of Belgharia, here in Kolkata. We are part of the 700056 pin code area. The shop is a typical local bhandar where we focus on selling the kinds of things every household needs for their kitchen and home. It’s not a very big place, so we have to stack things pretty high to fit it all in. You might see sacks of rice or piles of soap near the entrance depending on what day of the week it is. We have been in Belgharia for quite some time, and we know most of the people who walk through the door by their first names. It’s the kind of shop where you can stop for a quick chat while you wait for your items to be packed. We aren't interested in being a fancy modern store; we like the way things have always been done. The walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but we are usually too busy keeping up with customers to worry about that. It gets pretty humid here in the summer, but we keep the fans going and just get on with the day’s work. Whether you need some spices or just a packet of biscuits, we usually have it somewhere in the back. It’s just a simple, honest shop for the local community in Sri Krishna Nagar.
