Vikas Footwear Company Pvt. Ltd.

Our shop is tucked into Shop No. 6 of the Lucky Mansion building, right on Nehru Road in Santacruz. It’s a busy street with cars constantly honking and people rushing to get somewhere. We focus on footwear here, keeping the shelves lined with whatever is in season. The building itself has been around for a bit, so it has that old Santacruz feel to it. Inside, it’s mostly just boxes of shoes and a few chairs for people to sit while they try things on. We don't have a big team, just a few of us making sure everything is in its place. Sometimes the dust from Nehru Road comes in, so we’re always wiping things down. It’s a steady kind of work. We get our shipments in through the front door because there isn't much of a back entrance. You can hear the noise from the street all day long. We have sandals, formal shoes, and some casual stuff too. It’s not a polished showroom; it’s more of a practical place where we get the job done. We know the neighbors around here and the other shopkeepers. Usually, we take turns going out for chai in the afternoon. It gets cramped when we have a lot of customers at once, but we manage. We’ve been at this location for a while, just handling the daily business of selling shoes to whoever walks through the door. It is a bit loud but we like the energy of the street.
