Hitesh Paper Company

Our spot is in the Kothari Compound, tucked away off Kherani Road in Andheri East. If you know the area, you know it's always crowded with trucks and people moving things. We handle paper here. Big stacks, small stacks, all kinds. The warehouse gets quite full sometimes, and navigating between the piles can be a bit of a challenge. It smells like cardboard and old ink most of the time, which I guess is normal for a place like Hitesh Paper Company. We've seen the neighborhood change a lot over the years, with new buildings going up and more traffic than ever. Usually, someone is always loading a van or checking a manifest near the entrance. The humidity sometimes makes the paper curl, so we have to be careful about where we stack things. It’s not a quiet job. There is always the sound of tape dispensers or the rumble of a motor nearby. We have our tea breaks around the corner where it’s a bit quieter. Some days are slow, others we can barely keep up with the calls coming in. We don't have a big fancy sign or anything, just the address and the work we do. It’s steady work, and it keeps us busy from Monday to Saturday. Most of us have been working in this compound for years now.
