Aries (India) International

You can find us at Number 4 in the New Deluxe Apartments. It’s on Altamount Road, which is quite a different vibe from the industrial areas. Since we are in an apartment building, it feels more like a home office than a corporate headquarters. We have a few rooms set up with desks and computers. The view out the window shows the busy street below, with cars constantly moving. We do a lot of international coordination from here. It involves a lot of time on the phone and writing emails to people in different time zones. Sometimes the phone rings at odd hours because of the time difference. The hallway of the building is usually quiet, which is good for focusing. We’ve lived with these beige walls and the humming of the air conditioner for years. There’s a small kitchen area where we make tea and heat up lunch. We aren't a big team, just a few of us keeping track of shipments and orders. It gets a bit cramped when we have a lot of files to go through, but we make do. We don't have a showroom or anything to look at. It's just a place where the business side of things gets handled every day. We like the location because it’s central, even if the building is a bit older. We just keep our heads down and get the logistics sorted out for the people we deal with.
