Shiv Marble & Hardware Store

Shiv Marble & Hardware Store is situated in Ward No. 19. We are in Gariha Village, which is part of the Madhepura Block. If you're coming from the main road, we are near Purnia Road. It’s a decent spot for a hardware shop because people passing by can see what we have out front. We keep a lot of different things here, from heavy marble slabs to small nuts and bolts. The shop is usually a bit crowded with stock, but we know where everything is kept. Customers come in looking for stuff to fix their houses or for bigger building projects. We spend a lot of time moving heavy stones around and helping people load up their vehicles. It’s physical work and your hands get dirty pretty quick. The village stays relatively quiet compared to the city, but we get our fair share of foot traffic. We aren't trying to be the biggest store around, just a reliable place where you can get what you need without a fuss. Sometimes we have to wait a while for new shipments to arrive down Purnia Road. We try to keep the popular items in stock so nobody leaves empty-handed. It’s just me and a couple of others most days. We open up early and stay until the sun starts to go down. That’s how we’ve always done it here in Gariha. We just focus on the day-to-day tasks and helping the locals.
