Doshi Glass Works

Doshi Glass Works is located in Goregaon West. If you know this part of Mumbai, you know it’s a place that never really slows down. We’ve been operating here for quite a while now, tucked away in our little corner of the neighborhood. The shop is a bit cramped, like most places in Goregaon, but we make it work by being smart about where we stack things. There’s a lot of history in these streets, and we feel like we’ve become a small part of that over the years. We don't have any big corporate structure; it’s just us doing the work that needs to be done with glass. Most of our day is spent navigating the narrow aisles of the shop and making sure we don't bump into anything fragile. The noise of the city is always there in the background, but you stop noticing it after a few hours. We usually open up early to beat the worst of the heat and the traffic. People in the area know us mostly by word of mouth or just from walking past our door for years. It’s a straightforward life here, focusing on the physical work and dealing with the local folks who need something fixed or made. We don't have a lot of time for fluff, just getting through the pile of work on the bench and heading home to rest.
