Mairaj Export

Mairaj Export is at B165 Ekta Vihar, right on Rampur Road. It’s a plain building. We’ve been here since the neighborhood was much smaller. Now there are houses and shops everywhere. We handle exports, mostly sending things out to different places. Our office is just a desk and some chairs in a small room. There are boxes everywhere. We have to move them around just to walk to the back. It’s a bit of a mess sometimes but we have a system. Rampur Road is always busy with trucks and bikes. You can hear the horns all day long. We don’t have any fancy decorations on the walls. Just some calendars and a clock that’s a few minutes slow. My nephew helps me with the paperwork. He’s better at it than I am. We spend most of our time on the phone or checking the crates. It’s not a glamorous job but it pays the bills. Sometimes people stop by looking for directions and we help them out. We don’t have a big sign outside, just the house number. We’ve known the people on this street for years. We all just go about our business. If you come by, you might find us having lunch on the front steps. It’s a simple operation and we like it that way. We don't have a fancy coffee machine, we just use the kettle in the corner. It gets the job done and keeps us going through the long afternoons.
