Navkar Food & General Store

Navkar Food & General Store is located in Maa Kripa Market, right near the Somnath Temple. Because we are in Market 1, it’s always quite busy with people coming for prayers and then stopping by for their groceries. We sell all the usual food items like grains, snacks, and bottled drinks. The shop is often packed with bags of rice and stacks of biscuit boxes. It gets a bit hot in the afternoons, so we have a fan that makes a lot of noise. We don't have any fancy computerized systems; we just write things down and keep track of what’s on the shelves. It’s a local place where we know what the regulars like to buy. Sometimes the temple crowds are huge and the shop gets really full of people looking for water or a quick snack. We just try to keep up with the demand. The shelves are a bit dusty because of the open market, but we clean them when we get a spare moment. We have everything from soap to flour. It’s a practical, everyday kind of store. We aren't trying to be a big supermarket. We are just a part of the market here, doing our job and making sure the people around the temple have what they need for their homes. It’s a lot of work, but it’s what we do every single day.
