J. K. Industries

J. K. Industries is found at Plot No. 184 inside the GIDC Estate. It’s a straightforward industrial spot. We have a couple of large machines that take up most of the space on the floor. It can get pretty hot in there during the afternoon, especially in the summer months. We usually keep the big rolling door open to get some air moving. There are three of us working here full-time, and sometimes we bring in extra help if a big order comes through. We don't have a human resources department or any of that. If there is a problem, we just talk it out over tea. Our desk is covered in old invoices and sketches for different projects. It’s a bit messy, but we know where everything is. We don't really care much for looking professional in the traditional sense. As long as the products are solid and go out on time, that’s what matters to us. The GIDC is a good location because everything we need is nearby. We’ve been using the same suppliers for years because they are reliable and we know their families. It’s a community of small businesses all trying to make a living. We do our own maintenance on the machines to save some money. It keeps us on our toes and ensures we know our equipment inside and out. It is a long day, but we enjoy it.
