Duncans Fertilizer

We are located at 4-11-84 on Krishnapatnam Road in the Balaji Nagar area. It’s a fairly straightforward place, sitting right where the road gets busy with people heading in and out of town. The smell of the earth and the products we keep is always around us, but after a while, you don't even notice it anymore. We spend a lot of time waiting for the trucks to come in or helping people who pull up in their own vehicles. The shelves are usually stacked pretty high, and we have to be careful when moving things around so nothing tips over. There’s a small area where we sit when there are no customers, usually just leaning back and watching the bikes go by outside. The sun hits the front of the building quite hard in the middle of the day, making the metal shutters warm to the touch. We keep a calendar on the wall that's marked up with all sorts of notes and dates that only we really understand. It’s not a fancy office by any means, just a functional space where we do our business. Most of the people who come here are regulars who have been stopping by for years. We talk about the weather and how the crops might do, then get back to the heavy lifting. It’s physical work and your clothes usually end up a bit dirty by the end of the shift, but it’s a good way to spend the day.
