Sai Krupa Engineering Works

If you walk down Main Road, right across from the bus stop, you’ll see Sai Krupa Engineering Works at 18 19. It’s a convenient spot because everyone knows where the bus stop is. We hear the buses pulling in and out all day long, which is a sound we’ve grown quite fond of. The shop is filled with the smell of oil and the sound of machines running. We do engineering work, so there’s always some metal being cut or a part being fitted. It’s a gritty job and our hands are rarely clean. The workshop floor is concrete and has seen a lot of use over the years. We don’t have a receptionist sitting at a desk; you just walk in and talk to whoever is nearest to the door. We’ve got benches covered in blueprints and spare parts that we might need later. It’s a bit of a squeeze when we have a big project on the floor, but we make it work. Most of our tools are old but they still work better than the new stuff. We don't bother with fancy brochures or expensive ads. People see us working when they wait for their bus and they just stop in when they need something made. That’s how we’ve always operated. It’s just us doing what we know how to do best.
