Bodh Hosiery Factory

People often ask how to find us because the streets around Lahore Press Street get really narrow and confusing. We are tucked in at No. 436/5, right near the Government College on Daal Bazar Road. Most days it is quite noisy here with the knitting machines running constantly. We spend a lot of our time checking the stitch work and making sure the yarn doesn't get tangled up in the rollers. It is a family thing, really. My uncle used to run the floor, and now a few of us keep things moving every day. There is always tea being made in the back corner because it gets quite cold in the mornings during the winter months. Sometimes the delivery trucks block the whole street and everyone has to wait, which is just how it goes in this part of town. We don't have a fancy showroom for people to browse in. It is just the factory floor, some tall storage racks, and a lot of cardboard boxes waiting to be taped up. We have been in this spot for a long time now. You can smell the grease from the machines as soon as you walk through the door. We don't really do big advertising or anything like that. People just know where we are. Usually, someone is sitting by the entrance checking the manifest while the guys load up the tempo. It’s a lot of manual work, but we are used to the rhythm of the place.
