M K Auto Industries

Out in the Jhilmil Industrial Area in Shahdara, specifically at B 16, is where M K Auto Industries is based. This is an industrial neighborhood, so there are always sounds of heavy machinery and trucks moving around on the roads. Our workshop at B 16 is where we do all our manufacturing and assembly work. It is not a clean or quiet place; there is grease on the floors and the smell of metal and oil is quite strong most of the time. We spend our shifts working on various auto parts and making sure the machines are running correctly without breaking down. It is a lot of physical labor and we often go home with dirty hands and tired backs at the end of the shift. We don't have a fancy reception area for visitors, just the main factory floor where the actual work happens. The heat in Shahdara during the summer months can make the workshop feel like an oven, but we keep the big industrial fans going and just get on with it. We deal with suppliers and other businesses in the area mostly. It is a straightforward industrial operation without any bells and whistles. We have been at this location for a long time and have a routine that works for us. We just focus on getting the production numbers right and keeping the equipment in good shape for the next day. It is a practical life, working with our hands in the industrial heart of the city.
