Srishti

Srishti is a small shop located at 33 Nishant Kunj in Pitampura. It’s in a residential area, so it’s much calmer than being on a main highway. We have a glass front that looks out onto the street. Most of what we sell is ladies' clothing like suits and sarees. We keep the stock on hangers along the walls. The shop isn't very large, but we’ve managed to fit a small changing room in the back with a curtain. We’ve been in Nishant Kunj for a few years now. We see the same people walking their dogs or going to the market every day. In the afternoons, the sun shines right through the front door, so we have to pull down the blind to keep it cool. We have a couple of plastic chairs for people to sit on while they look at different fabrics. It’s just two of us working here most of the time. We handle the cleaning, the sales, and the accounts ourselves. The floor is covered with a simple rug that we vacuum every few days. We don't have a big staff or any fancy equipment. We just try to keep a good variety of things on the racks. Pitampura is a nice place to have a shop because it feels like a community. We usually close up around 8:00 PM and walk home. It’s just a small neighborhood business.
