Indrakumar Namdeo Pehlwan & Sons

Our place is right in the middle of Market Yard in Chandan Nagar. The address says Trimurti Mitra Mandal 297/298, which most locals know. It’s a family thing, started by my father and now we all sit here. The market is always loud and there’s a lot of dust from the trucks coming in and out. We deal with whatever comes our way that day. It’s mostly heavy work, moving stuff around and making sure the accounts are right. We don’t have fancy air conditioning or anything like that. Just some old fans that hum all day and move the hot air around. My brothers and I take turns being here. Some days are slow and we just sit and drink tea with the other shop owners nearby while talking about the news. Other days, we don't even have time to eat lunch until four in the afternoon because it's so busy. People come to us because they’ve known our family for years. We don't spend money on ads or anything because we don't see the point. We just open the heavy metal shutters early in the morning and stay until the work is finally done for the day. It’s a bit messy with all the bags and crates piled up, but we know where everything is kept. This is just how we’ve always done it here in the yard, and it works for us and the customers.
