Naya Bazaar

Our shop, Naya Bazaar, is located at Mm-227 in Sec-D 1 of the L.D.A Colony, right off Kanpur Road. It’s a residential area mostly, so we get a lot of people from the neighborhood stopping by. We carry a bit of everything, the kind of stuff you realize you’re missing in the middle of cooking or cleaning. The space isn’t huge, so we have to be careful about how we stack the shelves so people can actually walk through the aisles. It can get a bit cluttered, but we usually know where everything is if you ask. We’ve been here for a while and have seen the neighborhood change quite a bit over the years. My family helps out with the daily tasks, like checking the inventory and making sure the floor is swept before we open. We open up early and stay open until most people are heading home for dinner. It’s a lot of standing around and chatting with the regulars while they pick out what they need for their homes. We don't have fancy displays or those bright lights you see in the big supermarkets. It’s just a local shop where we try to keep the basics in stock for the folks living nearby. Sometimes we run out of things, but we try to get them back in on the next delivery. It’s a simple life running a shop in L.D.A Colony, and we like it that way.
