Apple Brand Rice

If you walk down Main Road in Dhalavaipuram, you’ll see us at number 3. We are right opposite the Karur Vysya Bank which makes it easy for people to find Apple Brand Rice. The traffic out front is constant. We spend a lot of our time moving heavy bags around and checking the stock of what we have. It’s dusty work and by the end of the day, our clothes are covered in it. We have a small office area but most of the action happens out where the bags are stacked high. Dhalavaipuram is a busy town and being on the Main Road means we see everyone passing by. Some stop for a chat and some just wave as they go to the bank. We don’t have a big team, just a few of us who have been here for years. We know the rhythm of the place. When the rains come, we have to move everything quickly so nothing gets damp. It’s a lot of physical work and my back feels it sometimes. But we like the routine of it. The sign outside is a bit faded from the sun but everyone knows who we are. We just keep doing the work day after day. It’s not a glamorous life but it’s ours and we are proud of the name we have here on Main Road. We have some regular customers who have been coming to us since we first opened. They know they can find us here. Sometimes we share a joke while we load their rice.
