AL FATIMA EXPORTS PRIVATE LIMITED

Our place is on Pantharwa Road in Begum Bazar, which is one of the most crowded parts of Allahabad. Al Fatima Exports Private Limited is at Plot No. 1023, and it’s a spot where you can always hear the rickshaws and the people shouting in the market. We do a lot of packing here, so the floor is usually covered with tape, cardboard boxes, and packing peanuts. It’s a constant cycle of getting things ready to be sent out. The building is an older one, and the stairs are a bit narrow, which makes moving heavy crates a real challenge sometimes. We have a small office area where the computer stays on all day for the export paperwork. Begum Bazar has a lot of energy, and we are right in the middle of it. Sometimes the dust from the road gets into everything, so we are always cleaning the desks. We don't have any corporate uniforms or anything like that; we just wear what is comfortable for moving boxes around. The heat in the summer makes the warehouse area pretty stuffy, but we just keep the doors open to catch whatever breeze comes down Pantharwa Road. We've been in this spot for a while, and the local tea seller knows exactly how we like our drinks. It’s a busy, unpolished life, but we keep the exports moving every single day.
