Khanna Steels Co.

Being right in the middle of Lohia Nagar Main Market at number 43 means there is never a quiet moment. We spend most of our mornings unloading trucks that block the narrow road for a bit too long. It’s a bit of a squeeze sometimes, but that’s just life in the market. We deal with a lot of steel bars and sheets, mostly just stacking them up and waiting for the next person to come by needing a few lengths for a construction project nearby. The shop floor is always covered in a bit of rust dust, and the smell of raw metal is something you just get used to after a week. We’ve seen the market change over the years, shops coming and going, but we’ve stayed put right here. It’s not a glamorous job. My hands are usually rough from handling the heavy stuff all day, but it’s honest work. We don't really do fancy displays. If you need steel, you just come in and ask what we have in stock. Usually, we're sitting at the back on some old wooden chairs, keeping an eye on the street. It’s a busy spot, and there’s always someone stopping by for a quick chat or to check prices. We just try to keep things organized so we can find what people need without too much fuss. It gets hot in the summer, but the ceiling fan keeps us going. We hope the market stays this busy for a long time.
