Sri Mahalakshmi Essential Oil And Allied Industries

You can find us at 31-D in Shivalli. We are into essential oils and other allied industries. It’s a bit of a niche business, I suppose. The smell around our building is always very strong. Some days it is lavender and other times it is something more medicinal. It depends on what we are processing that day. The area is mostly industrial, so we don't have many neighbors to complain about the scents. The building itself is just a plain concrete structure. We have some heavy equipment for the oil extraction. It needs a lot of maintenance, so there is always someone fixing something with a wrench or a hammer. We don't have a big marketing department or anything. We just take the orders as they come in. Most of our work is done in the back area where the tanks are kept. We have to be careful with the temperature because the oils are sensitive. It’s a lot of waiting and watching gauges. We have a small desk near the front door where we keep the records. It’s usually covered in dust and old papers. We aren't very organized with the office stuff, but we know where everything is kept. The road outside is a bit rough and gets very muddy when it rains. We've thought about moving to a newer place but we’ve been here so long it feels like home. It’s just a steady, quiet life for us here in Shivalli.
