Archi Arts Exports

Our business is situated in the Krishan Gopal Estate, which is right near the Panchratan Estate and Memco at 9 A on Grant Road. It’s a proper industrial kind of area, so there is always the sound of trucks and people moving things around. We handle exports, mostly stuff related to arts and architectural items. Our warehouse space is usually packed with crates and packing materials like bubble wrap and tape. It can get quite warm in there during the afternoon, especially when we’re busy loading up a shipment. We spend a lot of time on the phone checking on shipping dates and making sure the customs forms are filled out correctly. It’s a lot of paperwork, which isn't the fun part of the job, but it has to be done. We have a small crew who knows how to pack things so they don’t break during the long journey overseas. Most days are spent checking the items coming in and getting them ready to go out again. It’s a bit of a dusty environment, but that’s just how it is in this part of Grant Road. We don't have a fancy showroom or anything like that. People come here to get things shipped, and that’s what we focus on. It’s hard work and the days are long, but we’ve been doing it for a while and we have a good rhythm. We just take each day as it comes.
