Krishijan Vikas Bahuuddeshiya Producercompany Limited

Working out of Shop Number 61 in the Purani Dhan Mandi is exactly what you would expect from an old grain market. It is loud, it is crowded, and there is always the smell of grain and dust in the air. Krishijan Vikas Bahuuddeshiya Producercompany Limited is right in the middle of all that action. We spend our mornings watching the carts and trucks come in. The shop itself is small, just like the others around it, with enough room for a few people to sit and some space for bags and samples. Being in the old market means we see everyone. You can’t really hide away in a place like this. People stop by to talk about prices or just to complain about the rain. We handle a lot of different things since we are a producer company, but it all comes back to the basics of what’s happening in the dirt. Our walls are covered with old calendars and notes we’ve scribbled to ourselves. It is not the kind of place where you worry about getting a bit of mud on the floor. We’ve been here long enough that the neighbors know us by name. It’s a tough environment sometimes, especially when it’s hot and the market is packed, but it feels right to be where the actual trade is happening. No fancy desks or air conditioning here, just honest work.
