Lion Imports & Exports

Lion Imports & Exports is located right on Nehru Street, number 121, in Jaihind Puram. If you know the area, you know it’s a tight street with plenty of people moving around. We aren't a big company despite the name. It’s just a name we picked a long time ago when we first started out. The building is old, and the stairs creak a bit when you come up to see us. We spend a lot of time on the phone dealing with customs and shipping agents. It’s a lot of waiting around for things to arrive and then a big rush to get them back out. My father started this, and I’m just keeping it going as best as I can. We have a small storage area in the back that always seems to be full of something different every month. Sometimes it's heavy stuff, sometimes it’s lighter. We don't specialize in just one thing; we take what comes through the door. The neighborhood is full of small shops like ours. We usually grab lunch from the stall across the street. Most of our day is spent making sure the numbers on the invoices match the stuff in the boxes. It’s not the kind of job you write stories about. It’s just work. We keep the fans running all day because it gets stuffy inside. We know the other business owners on Nehru Street, so we look out for each other.
