New Mahavir Kirana

At New Mahavir Kirana, we spend most of our day behind the counter waiting on the local folks from around Mahal. Our shop is at Plot No 05 in Shukrwari, which is a busy area in Nagpur. Being near Kashi Dev Mandir means we see a lot of people coming and going for prayers. We keep a lot of items that people need for their daily meals, like turmeric, chili powder, and different types of lentils. The air in the shop often smells like a mix of all those spices. It is a small space but we managed to fit a lot of shelves in there. Sometimes it is hard to find a specific brand of soap if we just got a new shipment in. We don't have any corporate office or anything like that. It is just a few of us working here and making sure the stock is okay. The Nagpur heat can be tough, but the shop stays relatively shaded. We have been at this address for a while and the neighbors usually just yell their order from the door. We write things down in a notebook and settle up later sometimes. It is a very traditional way of doing things but it works for us. We just want to make sure the bins of rice are full and the customers get what they came for without waiting too long in the sun.
