Anand Enterprises

Anand Enterprises is located at Shop No.8 in the Regel Apartment building over in Anand Nagar. It’s a quiet enough area most of the time, since it’s an apartment block. Being in Shop 8 means we are right there on the ground where people walk their dogs or head out for work in the morning. The space is small, but we’ve managed to fit everything we need inside. We spend a lot of time just managing the day-to-day stuff that comes with running a small enterprise. Usually, the morning starts with opening the locks and sweeping the front bit of the pavement. The shelves are mostly full, and sometimes it’s hard to find a place to put new things when they arrive. We don’t have a big corporate office or a lot of staff running around. It’s mostly just us handling the phone calls and talking to the locals who live in Regel Apartment. Sometimes they just stop by to say hello while they are out. We try to keep things simple and honest. We’ve seen the neighborhood change a bit over the years, but our shop stays pretty much the same. There is a bit of a draft that comes through the door in the evening, so we usually keep a sweater handy. It’s a decent place to work, even if it gets a bit cramped when we have a lot of stock sitting on the floor waiting to be moved. It's just a regular local business.
