Perfect Steel

We've been at this spot near Guljar Hospital for a while now. It's busy on the Ludhiana Bye Pass Road, lots of trucks going by. We handle steel mostly. It’s heavy work, but it’s what we do. The shop isn't fancy, just a practical space where we cut and move metal. Sometimes the dust gets a bit much, but that's just part of the job here in Malerkotla. People stop in when they're passing through or if they have a local project. We keep a stock of different things, whatever seems useful for the builders around here. It gets hot in the summer under the tin roof, but we manage. My cousin helps out sometimes when things get backed up. We aren't doing anything world-changing, just supplying steel to people who need it for their houses or shops. Usually, the morning is the busiest time when everyone is trying to get their orders loaded up before the heat kicks in. We know the neighbors pretty well. If you miss the turn near the hospital, you end up going too far towards the bypass, so we tell people to look for the big gate. It’s a straightforward business. No big office or receptionist, just us in the back handling the inventory. We’ve seen the road change a lot over the years, more traffic now than when we first opened. It’s okay though, keeps us on our toes.
