Pawan Herbal

We are out on Katol Road. The shop is number 43 in Yogendra Nagar. It’s a busy road with a lot of trucks and bikes going past all day. You can hear them from inside the shop. Sometimes the dust from the road gets on the windows so we have to wipe them down every morning. The space inside is full of shelves. We have things tucked into every corner. It smells a bit like dried plants and earth in here, which is just how it is with these kinds of things. We have a small counter near the front. There’s a chair that’s getting a bit old, but it’s comfortable for sitting during the slow hours. We don't have any bright neon signs. Just the name Pawan Herbal on a board. Most people find us because they live nearby or they're passing through on the road. We usually have the radio on low in the background. It keeps us company while we’re sorting through the stock. There’s a small sink in the back for washing up. We keep a diary on the desk to write down what people ask for. It’s a simple setup. No computers everywhere or anything like that. Just us and the products we have on the shelves. It gets a bit hot in the afternoons but the cross-breeze from the back door helps a little bit. We keep a plastic water jug near the counter.
