Akzo Nobel India Ltd.

We are located in Sector 28, right near the Thala metro station. If you know the Baghban Apartments, we are in flat 414 in the GH-2 block. It’s a busy spot since the metro is so close and people are always rushing back and forth. Our office is tucked away in the residential building, so it feels a bit more like a home than a big corporate headquarters. We deal with paints and coatings, which is what the name is known for. Inside, we have some samples and lots of charts. It’s mostly desks and computers, though. It can get a bit cramped when we have all the staff in at once. We usually have the radio playing quietly in the background while we work. Working in a place like this, you get to know the security guards and the neighbors pretty well. We grab tea from the stall just outside the gate most mornings. It’s a regular routine that we enjoy. Sometimes the elevators are slow, so we just take the stairs. We handle the local side of things here. It involves a lot of talking to suppliers and checking on orders. We don't really have a big showroom for people to browse, it's more of a place where the back-end work gets done. It’s just a regular day-to-day operation for us. We keep things simple and try to stay on top of the paperwork as best we can.
