Purohit Sweets

Purohit Sweets is located in Wakad. If you know the area, you know it’s growing really fast with all the new buildings and people moving in. Our shop is just one of the many small businesses trying to keep up. We don’t have a big staff, just a few people who know how to get the work done. The day usually starts with a lot of heavy lifting. We have to move the ingredients around and get the kitchen ready. It’s a hot job, especially during the summer months when Wakad gets really dry. We don’t use any corporate language because that’s just not who we are. We’re just local people. We spend our time checking the inventory and making sure the trays are full. The customers come from all over the neighborhood. Some are new to the area and just moved into the flats nearby. Others have lived in Wakad since it was mostly fields. We listen to their stories while we pack their orders. The shop isn't anything fancy to look at, just a counter and some shelves. We focus on the daily tasks and making sure we don't run out of the popular items. It's a lot of repetition, but there's a certain comfort in that. When evening comes, we tidy up and get ready to do it all over again tomorrow. It is hard work but we are used to the pace.
