Choice Novelties

Choice Novelties is located right on Pune Satara Road, near the Karve Road intersection. It is number 2 on the block. If you’ve ever driven down this way, you know the traffic can be a real headache, especially during the morning rush. We’ve been here for a good amount of time, just doing our thing and helping people find what they’re looking for. The shop isn't huge, but we pack a lot into it. It’s mostly just us handling everything from opening up early in the morning to locking up late at night. Sometimes the weather makes it tough, like when it rains hard and the road gets messy, but we stay open regardless. We get a mix of people coming in—some are just passing through because of the main road, and others have lived nearby for decades. It’s a straightforward setup with shelves full of different items that we pick up from various suppliers. There’s no big team here, just a couple of us making sure things are running okay. We don't really do much advertising or anything like that; people usually just see the sign when they're stuck in traffic or walking to the nearby shops. It’s a bit dusty sometimes because of all the vehicles outside, but that’s just how it is on this side of town. We just keep things moving and try to stay organized as much as possible, though it gets a bit cluttered during the festive seasons when we bring in more stock.
