Nageshwar Clothing Private Limited

Our place is tucked away in the Ghaswala Estate on S G Marg in Tardeo. It is an old area with a lot of history, and we have been operating Nageshwar Clothing Private Limited out of building number 493 in B 2 for some time now. Tardeo is always crowded, so getting here in the morning is usually an adventure with all the taxis and people walking everywhere. Our workspace is pretty basic. We have some tables for cutting and folding, and some racks for the finished clothes. It’s not the kind of place you’d find in a glossy magazine, but it works for us. We spend most of our day talking to suppliers or checking the stitching on the latest batch of shirts or trousers. Sometimes the power goes out or the street gets flooded during the monsoon, but we just deal with it as it comes. We aren't trying to be some huge corporation; we just like making clothes and keeping the business going. Most of the staff live nearby, so we feel like a part of the local community here. We usually have tea together in the afternoon while we go over the day's tasks. There’s always a lot of fabric dust and the sound of sewing machines in the background. It is just how it is. We focus on the work and don't worry too much about the rest. It is a simple life for us here in South Mumbai.
