Manjula Pharmacy

We are set up on the ground floor along Hatiara Ghuni Road, specifically in the Laskar Para area. If you know where Haja Smrite Sangha is, we are right near there. Running a pharmacy means our hours are often a bit different from everyone else’s. We are here when the sun comes up and often long after it goes down. It’s a busy little corner of Hatiara. The shelves are packed with all sorts of boxes and bottles, and sometimes it feels like we are playing a game of Tetris just to find a specific item. We aren't a big chain store with bright neon lights and fancy displays. It’s a local shop where we know a lot of the people who walk through the door by their first names. We spend our time checking prescriptions, talking to customers about their aches and pains, and making sure the inventory is stocked. It can be a bit overwhelming when a lot of people come in at once, especially during the rainy season when everyone seems to have a cold. But we just take it one person at a time. The floor is old tile, and the fan hums overhead all day long. It’s a simple life, but it’s an important one for the neighborhood. We don’t have a big marketing plan. We just stay open and try to be helpful to whoever needs us in this part of 700157.
