Silk International

We are located in the basement of building 51 in Vinoba Puri. Lajpat Nagar 2 is always packed with cars and people, so it can be a bit of a headache to get here sometimes. Being in a basement means we don't get much natural light, but it stays a bit cooler in the summer which is nice. We have been working out of this space for a couple of years. It’s mostly just us handling the orders and making sure everything is sorted out properly. The stairs are a bit steep, so you have to be careful when you're carrying boxes down. Vinoba Puri is a busy neighborhood with lots of small businesses like ours tucked away in different corners. We keep a pretty simple routine. We show up, check what needs to be done, and get to work. There isn't any fancy lobby or a receptionist greeting people. You just walk in and we are right there at our desks. Sometimes the water pipe in the back makes a weird sound, but we’ve gotten used to it. The tea stall at the corner is where we get our break most afternoons. It's a practical place to be because we are close to the main market area without being right in the middle of all the noise. Most of the people around here know us by now as the ones in the basement. It's not glamorous but it gets the job done for us every day.
