Ashwani Traders

We’ve been running Ashwani Traders from this spot at Plot 1488/1, Street No 8, in New Chander Nagar for a good while. It’s over in the Civil Line area. The street is quite narrow, so when a delivery truck comes, everything else has to stop for a bit. It’s a typical busy neighborhood. Our building is nothing special to look at, just a sturdy place where we keep our stock. Inside, the shelves go all the way to the ceiling. I sometimes have to use a ladder that’s a bit wobbly, which reminds me I should probably replace it one of these days. We deal with a lot of different people every day. Some are regulars who have been buying from us for years, and others are just passing through. We keep a ledger on the main desk where everything gets written down by hand. It feels more reliable that way. The office part is just a small corner with a fan that clicks on every rotation. We don’t have a website or any of those modern things. If someone needs to know what we have, they usually just call or walk in. My nephew helps out with the heavy lifting now. We drink a lot of chai throughout the day to keep going. It’s just a normal trading business. We buy things, we sell them, and we try to keep the shop organized enough to find what we need.
