Ashish Traders

You can find us out on Delhi Road at number 607. It's a loud spot because of all the trucks and buses heading toward the city, but we've gotten used to the noise over the years. Ashish Traders has been operating out of this building for a long time now. The front door is usually propped open with a brick to let a bit of a breeze in, even though it brings in the road dust too. We deal with a lot of heavy stock, so there’s always crates or boxes sitting around the floor waiting to be moved. Our ledgers are mostly hand-written because that’s how we’ve always kept track of things. It’s not the cleanest place you’ll ever see, but we know exactly where every single item is stored. If someone comes in looking for something specific, we can usually dig it out from the back in a few minutes. Lunch is usually eaten right at the counter between customers. We don’t have fancy displays or bright lights. Most of our visitors are regulars who have been buying from us since we first opened. They know to come here when they want someone who actually knows the inventory. The fan on the ceiling wobbles a bit, but it keeps the air moving while we count out change and load up the carts for the afternoon deliveries.
