Shivam Super Market

Shivam Super Market is located at Shop No. 11 and 12, so we have a bit more space than some of the other shops around here. We are right in Hanuman Nagar, opposite the Mumbai Agra Road. It’s a busy spot in Nashik because of the highway and the Shubh Mangal Karyalay nearby. When there’s a wedding at the karyalay, the whole street gets packed with cars and people looking for supplies. We get a lot of foot traffic from people just passing through or those going to Bali Maharaj Mandir. We stock a bit of everything, from snacks to cleaning supplies. The shelves are high and we use a small ladder to reach the stuff at the top. It’s a lot of work keeping everything neat because people always move things around. My nephew helps me on the weekends when it gets extra busy with the highway crowd. We don't have a computer for billing, just a calculator and a notebook, which works fine for us. The noise from the highway is constant, but you get used to it after a while. We stay open pretty late because there’s always someone who forgot to buy salt or matches. It’s not a fancy supermarket like the ones in the big malls, but we have what the locals need. We just try to stay stocked up and keep the shop running smoothly every day of the week. It keeps us busy and out of trouble.
