Mahavir Minerals Trading Co

Mahavir Minerals Trading Co is right on M G Road, near the Grand Hyatt Mumbai 26 area. It’s an interesting spot because you have all these fancy hotels nearby, but we’re here dealing with sacks of minerals and dust. Our clothes are usually covered in a fine powder by the end of the shift. The office part of the shop is just a small corner with a fan and a few ledgers. We spend most of our time outside or in the storage area checking the bags. It’s heavy work, moving those loads around, and our backs definitely feel it by Friday. We’ve been trading minerals for years and we know the materials pretty well just by looking at them. The traffic on M G Road is something else, especially during peak hours, so we try to get our deliveries out early in the morning. We don't have a fancy website or anything like that. People just know we’re here at number 26. Sometimes we sit out front and watch the fancy cars go by while we drink our tea. It’s a strange contrast, but we like our little corner of Mumbai. We just focus on the trading and making sure the counts are right. It’s honest, dusty work that keeps us busy from dawn to dusk. We don't make a fuss about things, we just handle the loads and keep the books up to date.
