Urgha Food Products Pvt. Ltd.

BB Ganguly Street is one of those places that never really sleeps. Our office at number 13 is right in the heart of the action, very close to Lal Bazaar. If you’ve ever been to this part of Kolkata, you know the chaos. There are trams, buses, and thousands of people moving at once. Urgha Food Products has been squeezed into this area for a while now. The building is old, with high ceilings and those big heavy doors that creak every time you open them. Inside, it’s a constant battle against the humidity and the noise from the street. We’re mostly focused on the food items we produce, which means a lot of checking labels and moving crates around. It’s not a polished workplace. There are cracks in the plaster and the lightbulbs flicker sometimes. We drink a lot of tea to stay focused. Because we are near Lal Bazaar, there’s always a heavy police presence and a lot of government activity nearby. It makes the area feel important, even if our daily tasks are just about biscuits or snacks. We have workers who have been with us for years, and we all just pile into the small workspace and get on with it. Sometimes we have to shout to be heard over the traffic outside. It’s a gritty, busy environment, but it’s our home. We don't need a fancy lobby to do what we do. We just need enough space to stack the boxes.
