Anwar Alys

So, we are based out in Santacruz West. It's a busy part of town and we have been here for a good amount of time now. People usually find us by looking for the landmarks nearby since the streets can be a bit confusing. Anwar Alys is just the name on the board, but inside it’s just us working every day to get things sorted. The space isn't huge, so we have to be smart about how we stack things and where we put the boxes. Sometimes the electricity goes out for a bit or the traffic outside gets so loud we have to raise our voices just to hear each other. We handle all sorts of daily tasks, mostly just making sure things are running okay for anyone who stops by. We don't really do the whole fancy corporate thing with big presentations or shiny brochures. It's more about sitting down at the desk and getting the actual job done. The neighborhood is nice, plenty of familiar faces walking past our door every afternoon. We usually open up early and stay until the sun goes down and the market slows. Most of our day is spent on the phone or writing down notes on scraps of paper. It gets a bit messy on the desk sometimes with all the receipts and pens lying around. We’ve seen the street change a lot over the years, new shops coming and going, but we are still here in the same spot. It’s just how we live.
