Shrey Exports Inc.

We are based in Gala No 125, which is inside Ashirwad Industrial Estate. Specifically, we are in Building No. 5 on Ram Mandir Road in Goregaon West. Being in an industrial estate means it’s always loud and busy. There are trucks moving in and out of the compound all day long. Our gala is on the ground floor, which makes loading and unloading much easier than for the guys upstairs. The air inside is a bit heavy with the smell of machinery and cardboard. We have a small corner partitioned off for the computers, but the rest of the space is for the stock. It’s not a place where you’d bring guests to impress them. The walls are concrete and the floor has some cracks from years of moving heavy pallets. We spend a lot of time on Ram Mandir Road, either stuck in traffic or grabbing a quick bite from the carts outside the estate gates. The electricity goes out sometimes, and we have to wait for the backup generator to kick in. It’s a gritty, hard-working environment. Most of the other units in the building are doing similar things, so there’s a sense of being in it together. We handle the export paperwork on a cluttered desk under a flickering tube light. It's just how things are done here in Goregaon. We stay until the work is finished, often late into the evening. It’s tough but it keeps us busy.
