National Uniforms

You can find our workshop at M. J. Phule Nagar, situated right opposite the Railway Police Quarters in Building No. 20. It’s a busy little area where there’s always something happening, mostly because of the police quarters across the road. At National Uniforms, we are usually surrounded by piles of navy blue, white, and khaki fabrics. The sound of sewing machines is the constant background noise here. We spend our days measuring out sizes and making sure the buttons are sewn on tight enough that they won't pop off the first time a kid wears them. It’s repetitive work, but there’s a certain satisfaction in seeing a whole row of finished shirts. The building we are in is quite old and the hallways are narrow, but we’ve made our space functional. We don't have a big reception area or anyone to answer phones in a fancy way. Usually, it's just one of us putting down the scissors to talk to whoever walks in. Sometimes the power fluctuates and the machines stop, giving us a few minutes to look out at the railway quarters and see what’s going on over there. It’s a very local operation. We know the people around here and they know us. We just focus on getting the stitches straight and the orders ready for whenever they are needed. It’s just plain, hard work in a crowded room.
