Karmasewa Impex

Our spot is in New Seelampur, at E-13, and it’s usually a bit of a chaotic scene. We handle a lot of imports and trade stuff, so there are always boxes being moved from one side of the room to the other. The space isn't very big, so we have to be smart about how we stack things, often going all the way up to the rafters. We spend a lot of time on our phones talking to suppliers or checking where a shipment has gotten stuck. New Seelampur is a very busy area, and the streets are always packed with carts and people moving goods. It’s hard to find parking anywhere near E-13, so we do a lot of carrying stuff by hand. The office part is just a couple of plastic chairs and a laptop on a folding table. We don’t really care much for decoration. We just need to know what’s coming in and what’s going out. Sometimes we stay late when a truck arrives behind schedule, drinking coffee and trying to stay awake while we unload. It’s a lot of physical labor and paperwork that never seems to end. We don't have a fancy story about why we do this. It’s just a business we started, and we work hard to keep it moving. Every day is different depending on what’s in the crates, which keeps things from getting too boring, even when the heat is bad.
