Molla Stores

Molla Stores is situated right near the Sasati Bus Stand in Shyampur. Being near the bus stand means we see a lot of people coming and going from different parts of Howrah. It’s a noisy spot with the buses honking and people rushing to catch their rides. Our shop on Shyampur Road is small, but we try to make the most of the space we have. We keep a variety of goods that travelers or locals might need in a hurry. The floor is usually a bit dirty from all the foot traffic, but we sweep it as often as we can. We don't have any corporate training or anything; we just learned how to run the place by doing it every day. Sometimes the rain comes down hard and we have to move everything back from the entrance so it doesn't get wet. It’s just the reality of being in this part of West Bengal. We don’t do any advertising. Most of our business comes from people who are waiting for a bus and realize they forgot something. We keep the prices fair and don't make a big deal out of anything. It’s just a place to buy things. We stay open late because the buses run until night. It gets tiring standing all day, but that’s the job. We've been at this bus stand location for quite some time now and we know the schedule of the drivers by heart.
