Ali Brothers Stores

Ali Brothers Stores has been operating out of the Patna Collectorate area for quite some time. We are situated on Birla Mandir Road, right there in the 800001 district. It’s me and my brothers running the place together most of the time. One of us is usually at the counter while the others are out back or getting more stock from the market. The road gets really packed with people going to the collectorate or the temple nearby. It’s a noisy spot but we like the energy of it. The shop has shelves reaching all the way to the ceiling so we have to use a ladder to reach some things. It gets a bit cramped when three or four customers come in at once. We don’t have any fancy displays. Everything is just stacked where it fits. We mostly deal with the people who work in the offices nearby and the families living on Birla Mandir Road. Dealing with the heat in Patna is always a struggle, especially in May. We just keep the fan running and keep working. Sometimes we stay open late if there's a lot of work to finish. It’s a family thing, so we don't really count the hours. The address is easy to find if you just follow the road toward the collectorate building.
