Eakta Auto Agency

Eakta Auto Agency is over at 962, Hamilton Road. Kashmere Gate is the place for auto parts, and we are right in the thick of it. The shop is filled with rows of boxes and spare parts for all sorts of vehicles. It’s always dusty because of the road construction and the constant flow of trucks and rickshaws outside. We’ve been here a long time, so we know the layout of Hamilton Road like the back of our hand. It’s not a quiet place to work. You can hear the shouting of loaders and the engines starting up all day long. We mostly deal with the regular trade customers and people who come in looking for something specific they can't find elsewhere. Our shelves are stacked high, sometimes all the way to the ceiling, and finding things takes a bit of a reach. We don’t have a fancy showroom. It’s more of a warehouse feel where the focus is on getting the right part into the right hands. The mornings are for sorting out the new arrivals, and the afternoons are spent dealing with orders. We usually eat our lunch quickly because someone is always at the counter. It’s a bit cramped in the office area with all the ledgers and catalogs scattered around. We just keep moving and making sure the inventory is roughly where it belongs so we don't lose track of things.
