OM WIRE & WIRE PRODUCTS INDUSTRIES

OM WIRE & WIRE PRODUCTS INDUSTRIES is located right on Strand Road, which is always one of the busiest spots you can find. We are up on the 4th floor in Room 6. The building is one of those old ones where the walls have a lot of history and the hallways are narrow. Getting up those four flights of stairs is our daily exercise, especially when the humidity is high in the city. Room 6 isn't a very big space, but for wire products, we make it work by stacking things vertically. You can hear the constant honking of the traffic from Strand Road down below, which kind of becomes background noise after an hour or two. We handle a lot of paperwork and phone calls throughout the day. People are always asking about different gauges and lengths, so we keep the ledgers close at hand. It’s a bit of an old-fashioned way of doing things, with handwritten notes and a lot of face-to-face talk with the guys who deliver the goods. There isn't much room for a break area, so we usually just have our tea standing up or leaning against the window sill looking out at the river. It’s a crowded, noisy, and fast-paced environment, but it’s where we have been for a while. We just keep our heads down, handle the orders as they come in, and try to stay organized in a small room.
