Iqbal Store

We are located right in the Main Market area of Madurai, specifically on East Avani Moola Street. If you know Simmakkal, you know how busy it gets around here. It’s mostly just me and a couple of others helping out every day. The store isn't anything fancy to look at, just a regular place where we keep our stock and wait for people to come in. Most mornings start with moving things around to make space. The heat in Madurai can be really something else, especially in the afternoons when the sun hits the front of the shop. We have been in this spot for a good while now. People around here know us by name, which is nice I guess. We don’t really do much besides keeping the shelves full and making sure things are where they belong. The address is 625001, right in the heart of the old city. Sometimes the traffic is so bad that even the delivery cycles can’t get through, so we just wait. That’s just how it is in the market. We aren't trying to change the world or anything, we just open the shutters, sell what we have, and go home when it gets dark. It is a simple life and the work is steady enough. We see a lot of different faces every day coming through East Avani Moola Street, some regulars and some just passing through the market.
