N. H. Desai & Co

You can find us on the third floor of Anand Bhavan. It’s located at 290 Shahid Bhagatsingh Road. It’s an old building with a lot of stairs, so we get our exercise every day. We’ve been working out of this space for quite a bit. It’s mostly desks, chairs, and a lot of paper everywhere. We handle various parts of the shipping trade, mostly the clerical side of things. It’s not the most exciting work, but it’s necessary for things to move across the ocean. We don't really do fancy presentations or anything like that. We just talk to people and fill out forms. Sometimes the rain makes the roof leak a little, but we put a bucket there and keep working. The street outside is always packed with people and cars. It gets pretty loud during the day. We try to stay organized, but sometimes the files get a bit mixed up when we're in a big rush. Most of us have been here for years, so we know how things work in this part of town. It’s a small office, and we all know each other well. We eat lunch together usually. We aren't looking to change much, just keeping the business going one day at a time. It’s honest work and we do it as well as we can without making things complicated for anyone.
