Punjab Trading Co

You can find us over at Punjab Trading Co, right in the middle of Raekot Nigam market near Domoria pul chowk. It’s a chaotic area, especially when the trucks are trying to squeeze through the narrow parts of the market during the day. We spend a lot of our time dealing with crates and heavy bags. Since this is a trading business, it’s less about having a pretty display and more about getting the goods moved from one place to another. My office is small and usually has a few stacks of invoices sitting on the desk that I need to get to. My father started this years ago, and I just kind of stayed on to keep things moving along. We deal with a lot of different people every day, from delivery drivers to other shopkeepers looking for bulk items. The tea guy comes by twice a day, and that’s usually when we take a break and sit on the plastic chairs outside the entrance. Domoria pul chowk is always noisy, but you get used to the honking and the shouting after a week. We don’t have a website or anything like that. People just know where we are and they show up when they need to settle an account or order more supplies for their own shops. The walls could use a new coat of paint, but we’re usually too busy with the loading and unloading to worry about the decor. It’s honest work and it keeps us on our feet.
