Sri Shyam Trading Company

You will have to climb up a few flights of narrow stairs to find us here at 14/2 Old China Bazar Street. We are located way up on the second floor in Room Number 148. It is a bit tucked away from the main path, and the hallways can get quite dark if the building manager hasn't changed the light bulbs lately, but it is where we have set up our shop for now. The street right outside is always full of people, wooden carts, and a lot of noise, but once you finally get up to the second floor, it feels a little bit quieter. Our room is packed tight with cardboard boxes from the floor all the way to the ceiling. Sometimes it is actually hard to find a place to even sit down if we have just had a big shipment come in that morning. We spend most of our time answering the phone or writing down various orders on scraps of paper that we keep scattered on the desk. It is certainly not a big corporate office with carpets and glass walls. It is just a regular trading room with some old wooden shelves and one window that looks out onto the tops of the other buildings in the bazar. The natural light is okay in the mornings, but we usually have to turn the desk lamps on by four o'clock. We know most of the other guys working on this floor, and we often share a pot of tea in the late afternoon.
