Sindh Colour Mart

Sindh Colour Mart is located in Rui Mandi in Sadar Bazar. If you know Delhi, you know how crowded it is. We are at No. 5173. It’s a tiny space but it’s packed with every color you can imagine. We’ve been in Rui Mandi for ages now. The noise outside never stops. People shouting, carts moving, and bells ringing. It’s a lot to handle if you aren’t used to the chaos. We sell dyes and pigments. Our hands are usually stained with some color or another by the end of the day. It’s just how it is in this trade. We don’t have a website or anything like that. People just know where we are. They walk through the narrow lanes to find us. We keep the books manually mostly. It’s easier that way for us. The tea guy knows exactly when we want our break. We have customers who have been coming to us for twenty years. Their fathers used to buy from our fathers. It’s a family thing really. We don't use big words to describe what we do. We sell color. That’s it. Some days are good and some days are slow. But the market always feels alive. You can’t get bored here. We stay until late evening when the shutters start coming down all over Sadar Bazar. It’s a long day but we’re used to it after all this time.
