Jindal Provision

Jindal Provision is located in Vishrantwadi and has been a part of the neighborhood for a good while. It is a typical store where we keep things like grains, sugar, soaps, and other daily stuff. The shelves go all the way to the ceiling, so we have a small ladder to reach the top rows. It can get a bit tight when more than three people are inside at once. We spend the morning weighing out portions and filling bags. There is a specific smell of spices and cleaning supplies mixed together that you only find in shops like this. The floor is swept every morning, but dust always finds its way back in from the street. We know most of the people who walk through the door by their first names. They come in for a single item or a whole list for the month. We have a heavy wooden counter where we do the math on a notepad. There is no automated system here, just old-fashioned pen and paper. Sometimes we sit on a crate near the entrance to watch the traffic when things are slow. It is a simple life running a provision store. We keep the stock updated and make sure we do not run out of the basics like milk or bread. It is not a flashy place, just a corner of Vishrantwadi where you can get what you need for the kitchen.
