Eiyarkai Exim

Eiyarkai Exim is based at 1061 Sivagangai Main Road, right inside the SIPCOT industrial area in Manamadurai. If you have ever been out this way, you’ll know it’s a very large industrial park. It’s quite spread out, and there is often a lot of empty land sitting between the different manufacturing units. Our building is just a standard industrial shed like many others. We deal with various kinds of exports and imports, mostly related to the different industries that are established around this area. It gets incredibly hot in Manamadurai during the summer months, so the afternoons are usually very quiet until the temperature drops a bit in the evening. We started this business because we noticed there were a lot of goods being produced in this region that needed a reliable way to get out to the larger markets. It’s a small operation. We have a couple of desks, some computers, and a lot of shelf space for samples. We aren't a big company with a board of directors or anything like that. It’s just us and a few local workers who help with the heavy loading and unloading of trucks. The name Eiyarkai means nature in our language, which is important to us, but the actual daily work is very grounded in the physical reality of moving heavy boxes from one place to another. We spend a lot of time on the phone with various agents and customs people. It’s a decent place for us to work.
