Swastika Sales

Opening up the doors at Swastika Sales every morning at 5096 Lal Quila Sethi Market is a routine we have followed for years. Pathak Bans is an incredibly busy spot, and the noise from the street starts very early. We have been at this specific address for a long time, and the building shows its age. On summer days, it gets quite hot, and our old ceiling fan mostly just moves the warm air around without cooling much. By noon, Sethi Market is usually packed with people. Every day has its own rhythm. People walk past our entrance constantly, usually searching for something very specific in the market. We just keep the lights on and stay ready for whoever happens to come through the door. Because of the road nearby, a lot of dust settles on everything, so we spend a good portion of the morning just wiping down the desks. Swastika Sales is not a fancy or polished place. The walls could definitely use a fresh coat of paint. We make sure the signs are visible so people can find us at 5096 without too much trouble. It is just a regular shop in a busy part of the city. When the tea man comes by, we usually take a break, which is often the best part of the hour. There is no big corporate office here, just a few shelves and the constant sound of the market. The market life is all we really know these days.
