Balaji Houseware

You can find Balaji Houseware at Shop No. 54 inside Mahsul Bhavan. We are right on St Stand Road, directly opposite the main St Stand. Being across from the bus stand means we see thousands of people every day. It is a very busy spot with buses coming and going at all hours. We sell all kinds of houseware items like buckets, tubs, and kitchen things. Our shop is small, so we have to stack things high up to the ceiling to fit everything in. Sometimes it’s a bit of a struggle to get something down from the top shelf when a customer wants it. We’ve been in this shop for many years now. The noise from the buses and the conductors shouting is something we don't even notice anymore. Most of our customers are people who are traveling and realize they need something for their home, or locals who live nearby. We don't have any fancy displays. We just put our goods out where people can see them as they walk by to the bus station. The shop gets quite warm in the afternoon because of the sun hitting the front. We keep a small fan going and try to stay cool. It’s a simple business, and we like being in the middle of all the activity. Every day is different because of the different people passing through.
