Ram Kishan Mitra

Ram Kishan Mitra is situated right in the middle of the Wholesale Cloth Market at 4705 Laxmi Bazar. If you are familiar with the market, you already know it is loud and always moving with people carrying heavy loads. We are surrounded by piles of fabric and tall rolls of cloth every single day. It’s been our home for a very long time now. We don’t have a fancy office with air conditioning that works perfectly all the time. It’s just a shop where we do our business. The floors are worn down from years of people coming in and out to check the latest stock. We handle cloth all day, which can be heavy and tiring work. We don’t spend time talking about big visions or corporate goals. We just sell the cloth we have and make sure our customers get what they ordered without any trouble. 4705 Laxmi Bazar is easy to find if you are used to navigating the market maze. We know all the other shopkeepers around us and we look out for each other. There’s almost always a cup of hot tea being passed around the shop. We keep our records in big handwritten books. It’s an old-school way of doing things, but it has worked for us for years. Ram Kishan Mitra isn't a fancy brand name; it’s just the name on our door. We open early in the morning and close late. That’s just life here.
