Working inside the Noida Special Economic Zone is a bit different than the rest of the city. You have to go through the security gates every morning at the SEZ, which can take time if there’s a line. Gpl Exports Ltd. is located at plot number 20. It’s a sturdy building with plenty of space for what we do. The area is mostly industrial, so you don’t see many shops or houses right next to us. It’s just rows of factories and export houses. We spend most of our day dealing with the logistics of moving goods out. There is always a lot of paperwork because of the customs and the specific rules of the zone. It’s quiet in the office except for the sound of the printers and people talking on the phone. We don’t have a flashy entrance or a big lobby. It’s just a place where work gets done. Sometimes the heat in Noida gets really bad in June, so we try to keep the fans going all day. Lunch is usually brought from home and we eat together in the small break area. It’s not a corporate environment with a bunch of meetings. We just look at what needs to be shipped and we make sure it happens. Being at unit 20 means we are close to the main road, which helps when the trucks come in. We’ve been here long enough that the guards know us by name.
