Sawan Gandhi

We have two places where we spend our time every week. One is in the Main Market at Rajouri Garden, specifically H-14, and the other is over in Hauz Khas Village at Shop No. 8. Sawan Gandhi has been running between these two spots for some time now. Rajouri is always loud and full of energy, while Hauz Khas has that different, much older feel to it. It really keeps us on our toes moving back and forth across the city like this. We don't have any big corporate office or anything like that. Just these two shops where we work every single day. Usually, you’ll find one of us at one spot and someone else at the other. We handle the clothes ourselves and talk to everyone who walks through the door. Some days are incredibly slow, especially when it rains and nobody wants to be out, and other days we can barely keep up with the folding. It’s a lot of physical work, but it’s what we do. We didn't want a huge chain of stores, just these two that we can actually manage ourselves without hiring a bunch of managers. It’s better that way because we know exactly what’s happening on the floor at all times. The Hauz Khas shop is quite small, tucked away in the village, which is actually very nice. Rajouri is more of a constant rush. Both places feel like a second home to us.
