Master Print

If you find yourself on Coles Road near the Sho Masjid, you might see Sharda Chambers No 1. We are at number 31. It’s one of those older buildings that has seen a lot of years. Master Print is based right here, and the sound of the machines is something we’ve just gotten used to over the years. It can get pretty loud when everything is running at once, but it feels like the place is alive. The area around the mosque is always bustling, and there is always a certain smell of food and petrol in the air. Our shop is a bit cramped, honestly. There are boxes stacked up almost to the ceiling in some parts. We try to keep it tidy, but when a big job comes in, things just end up everywhere. It’s a very hands-on kind of place. You won't find any glossy brochures about ourselves here. We just show up, do the work, and hope the machines don't act up. Sometimes the neighbors come in just to say hello or borrow a stapler. We’ve been a part of this street for a while now and we know the rhythms of Coles Road. From the morning prayers to the late-night rush, we are usually here in the middle of it. It’s just a normal, hardworking shop with people who know their business and don't make a big fuss about it. We just keep our heads down and get the printing done.
