J.P. Rice & Foods Private Limited

Our office is up on the 12th floor of D Mall, which is located in Netaji Subhash Place. It’s a very different world from the fields where the rice actually grows. J.P. Rice & Foods Private Limited operates out of Shop No. A-1, and it’s a pretty busy spot in Pitampura. We spend most of our time looking at screens and talking to transporters. Being in a mall means there are always people around, and the elevators can be a real pain during lunch hours when everyone is trying to go up or down at the same time. The office itself is functional, with plenty of desks and files related to food shipments. We don't have a fancy view, just other buildings and the busy streets of Delhi below us. It gets quite noisy with the traffic, even being this high up. We deal with a lot of paperwork because moving food products across the country involves a lot of rules. Sometimes we stay late when a shipment is delayed or there’s an issue at the warehouse. It’s a lot of coordination and making sure the numbers add up. We drink way too much coffee from the little pantry we have. It’s a professional environment but without the corporate polish you might expect. We are just a group of people trying to make sure the food trade goes smoothly. Pitampura is a hectic place to work, but it’s where everything happens. We just keep our heads down.
