Jalaram Medical

Jalaram Medical is right in the middle of everything at Shop Number 9 in the Main Gandhidham Market. If you’ve ever been to the market, you know how chaotic it can get. It’s loud, it’s crowded, and there’s always something happening right outside the door. Being at Shop 9 means we are right in the thick of it. We have to keep our space organized because the market outside is anything but. Most mornings start with us sweeping the front and getting the stock ready for the day. People come to Gandhidham from all over, so we see a lot of different faces every hour. It’s not the kind of place where you sit down and relax. We are usually on our feet all day long. The market has its own smell—a mix of spices, dust, and everything else being sold nearby. We’ve been in this spot for a good bit of time, and we’ve seen shops come and go, but we just keep doing what we do. It’s a lot of work keeping up with the demand in such a central location. Sometimes we don’t even have time for a proper lunch break. We just grab a quick snack and get back to the counter. It’s a rough and tumble kind of life in the market, but it suits us just fine. We have a small fan that rattles on the ceiling when it is hot.
