Prashant Printers / Bhavana Printers

We are located in the Narayan Building, specifically in Room No 70, over on Charni Road. It’s quite near Parekh Wadi and the Aradhana Hotel, which are easy landmarks to find if you’re lost. We go by Prashant Printers or Bhavana Printers, depending on who you talk to, but it’s all the same small operation. Our room is up in the building and it’s usually filled with the sound of the printing machines running. The smell of ink and paper is something we’ve grown very used to over the years. Room 70 isn’t very big, so we have to be careful about where we stack the finished jobs and the raw paper rolls. Charni Road is a great place to be because there is so much trade happening all around us. We don’t have a fancy reception area or anything like that. When you come in, you’re basically walking right into the workspace. We spend our days checking proofs, cleaning the rollers, and making sure the colors look okay. It’s hard work on the hands and it can get quite warm in the afternoons, but we just keep the fans going and carry on. We’ve been part of this neighborhood for a long time, and a lot of our customers are just people from the nearby buildings who need something printed quickly. We don't do big fancy marketing. We just do the work as it comes in and try to stay organized.
