R. K. Oswal Hosiery & Wool Centre

If you are looking for R. K. Oswal Hosiery & Wool Centre, you have to find your way to 479 in Bartan Market. We are up on the first floor. Sadar Bazar is always a bit of a struggle to navigate because of the crowds, but once you get up the stairs, it’s a little better. Our shop is filled to the brim with wool, hosiery items, and various knitted goods. There isn't much room to walk around because we try to keep as much stock as possible. We’ve been here for many years and have seen the market change quite a bit. It’s a family-run kind of place, so there isn't any corporate talk here. We just know our products and we talk to our customers. The lighting isn't the best, and the wooden floors creak when you walk on them. We don't have a fancy website or any marketing materials. Most people find us because they’ve been buying from us since their parents were young. In the winter months, it gets incredibly busy and we are constantly moving boxes around. In the summer, it’s a bit slower and we spend time organizing the shelves and dusting the bags. We drink a lot of tea and chat with the other shopkeepers in the hallway. It’s a simple way of doing things. We just provide what people need and keep the shop going every single day.
