Munne Chacha

Everyone around Arb Chowk in Malegaon knows where Munne Chacha is. We are located in Naya Pura, right near the Noorani Masjid. The calls to prayer help us keep track of time during the day. This isn't a corporate office with air conditioning. It’s a busy workshop where things are constantly being moved around. We have sacks of ingredients piled up in the corners and the floor needs sweeping every hour. My uncle started this place a long time ago, and we just keep doing what he did. We don't use any fancy marketing tricks to get customers. People come here because they know we are honest and we don't cut corners with the quality of the products. The traffic in Malegaon can be a nightmare, so we try to get our deliveries out early in the morning before the streets get clogged up. It’s a noisy, dusty, and busy life, but it’s ours. We drink a lot of tea while we work and talk about whatever is happening in the news. Sometimes the kids from the street come in to say hello. We are just a regular part of the community in Dist Nasik. We don't plan on changing much, just staying here and doing the work we know how to do best. It’s hard work, but it feels right to be doing something with our hands every day.
