Apna Mobile Centre

Our shop is D 9 in the New Sanjay Niwas building. We are located in Bhandup East, right across the road from the Bank of Baroda. Having the bank there makes it very easy for people to find Apna Mobile Centre. It’s a small shop, like many others in this part of Bhandup. We have glass counters filled with different mobile accessories and phones. Most of the day is spent talking to people who have issues with their devices or just need a new charger. It can get quite cramped in here when three or four people come in at once. New Sanjay Niwas is a typical local building, and we have been here for a good while. The noise from the street is constant, with rickshaws and cars honking all the time. Bhandup East has a busy, working-class energy that we really like. We don't have a mission statement on the wall or a fancy uniform. We just wear what we want and do the work. The shop is a bit messy at times with repair tools and tiny screws on the back bench. It’s a real place where things get fixed. We see the same faces every day passing by on their way to the bank or the station. It is a simple life running a mobile shop in a busy area.
