Ajay Hygienes

Our shop is over on Sinhagad Road in Shaniwar Peth. We’re at number 10/570/71. Shaniwar Peth is such a historic area, it’s nice to be based here. We deal in hygiene products. It’s the kind of stuff everyone needs but no one really thinks about until they run out of it. We’ve got stacks of supplies reaching almost to the ceiling. It’s a bit of a tight squeeze in the back room sometimes. We started Ajay Hygienes because we saw a need for these supplies in this part of the city. We aren't a big chain. It’s just us and a couple of helpers. We do a lot of our own deliveries around Sinhagad Road. It’s a good way to see what’s going on in the neighborhood. Some days are slow, and we just sit and watch the traffic go by. Other days, the phone won’t stop ringing and we’re running around like crazy trying to get orders out. We don't use any fancy sales tactics. We just tell people what we have in stock and how much it costs. Simple English, no games. The building we’re in has seen better days, but it’s sturdy and it keeps our stock dry. That’s all we really need. We like being local and knowing our customers personally. It makes the work feel a bit more real and useful. We’re just here on the corner doing our thing.
