Ply World

Ply World is located over in Jawahar Nagar on Jagannath Shankar Seth Road 2. It’s a fairly central spot, so we see a lot of people passing by on their way through the city. The shop is filled with various types of plywood and boards, which means the whole place has that distinct woody smell all day long. It is a simple setup. We have the racks for the sheets and a small counter where we handle the bills. Most of the time, we are busy helping someone load up a van or cutting down a piece of board to a specific size. It is not the kind of work where you stay clean for long. Sawdust gets into everything, even your tea if you aren't careful. We know the other shopkeepers along Jagannath Shankar Seth Road pretty well by now. We all just try to get through the day and keep our customers satisfied without any unnecessary drama. Sometimes the traffic outside gets backed up and the horns are a bit much, but you get used to it after a few months. We aren't some big chain with a glossy brochure. We are just a local shop in Jawahar Nagar doing what we know. People come in, they look at the ply, they ask about the price, and we help them out. It’s a basic way to make a living, and it keeps us busy enough from morning until the shutters go down. We sweep up the floor at the end and call it a day.
