Delhi Badges

You can find us over in Chawri Bazar, which everyone knows is one of the most crowded parts of the city. We are specifically located in Lal Kuan Bazar, not too far from the Chawri Bazar Metro Station. If you’ve ever been here, you know the streets are narrow and always filled with people carrying boxes or pulling carts. Delhi Badges has been operating out of this area for a long time. Our workshop is small and usually smells like metal and paint. We spend our days making all kinds of badges, and the machines we use are quite old but they still get the job done. It gets very loud when everything is running at once. We don't have a receptionist or a fancy waiting room. If you come by, you’ll probably find us hunched over a workbench or packing up an order for a customer who is waiting outside. The electricity goes out sometimes, which is just part of living and working in this neighborhood. We’ve gotten used to the chaos of the market. Lunch is usually something quick from a nearby stall because there’s always another order to finish. We aren't trying to change the world; we’re just making badges and trying to keep up with the demand. It’s a tough, busy place to work, but it is our home and we know everyone on the street by now.
