Joshi Traders & Kirana Store

Dhanmandi is where you will find Joshi Traders & Kirana Store. It’s a place filled with the smell of spices and grains. We spend our days here among the sacks and containers. The name Joshi Traders & Kirana Store is painted on the wall. Dhanmandi is a tough place to work because it’s always crowded with trucks and laborers. We open early in the morning when the air is still a bit cool. Most of our day is spent weighing things out or writing in our ledgers. We don't have a lot of time for fancy talk. Joshi Traders & Kirana Store is a practical business. We deal with the basics that people need every day. The floors are often dusty from the flour and sugar, but that’s just how it is in Dhanmandi. We’ve got our regular customers who have been coming to us for years. They know exactly where we are located. We don't use any big marketing tricks. We just stay at our post and serve the people who walk in. The shop has a lot of history in these walls. Sometimes it gets really hot in the afternoon, so we turn on the old ceiling fan. It’s a simple life running a kirana store in a place like Dhanmandi. We are just workers doing our bit every single day. The piles of goods are our only scenery, and we are fine with that. The trucks outside make it hard to hear sometimes, so we speak up.
