We set up Fresh Fruit 9 right behind Krishnaveni school in Poranki. It’s inside Krishnaveni towers, so it’s easy to find if you know the area. Being near a school means we see a lot of kids and parents every afternoon when the classes let out. It gets pretty lively when the bell rings and everyone wants a snack. We handle a lot of fruit here, obviously. Every morning, we are sorting through crates and making sure everything is okay to put out on the shelves. It’s a lot of manual work and my hands are usually stained by the end of the shift. We aren't trying to be a big supermarket with shiny floors. It’s just a local spot for people in Vijayawada who need something fresh for their kitchen. Sometimes the weather makes it hard to get certain items from the farms, so the shelves might look a bit different from week to week. We don't have a fancy website or anything like that. If someone wants to know what we have, they just walk in and look at the baskets. The floor gets a bit messy during the busy hours when we are unpacking boxes, but we sweep it up when things quiet down in the evening. We’ve been in this spot for a bit now and the neighbors seem to appreciate having us close by. It’s a basic operation. We just show up, stack the boxes, and talk to whoever comes in.
