Ganesh Courier Services

We run Ganesh Courier Services out of the first floor of Mapla House, which is Building Number 13/21 on Mohammad Shakoor Marg. It’s right in the middle of the Fort area, so it stays very busy with all the offices and shops around here. We spend most of our morning sorting through piles of envelopes and packages that need to go out. The building is one of those old ones with high ceilings and a lot of character, though the stairs can be a bit of a climb when you’re carrying heavy bags. It is a simple operation really. We take in the parcels, mark them down in our ledger, and make sure the delivery boys know where they are going. There is always a lot of tea drinking and talking while we wait for the next batch of mail to arrive. We don't have a website or anything like that because most of our customers just walk up the stairs or call us on the landline. It can get a bit chaotic when there are lots of deliveries at once, but we have a system that works for us. We have been in this same spot for a long time and we know almost everyone on this street. It’s not a glamorous job but it is important to get things delivered on time. We just keep our heads down and focus on the paperwork and the parcels until the day is done.
