Shivtej Enterprises

Our place, Shivtej Enterprises, is located right in Aat Post- Ghotawadi. We are on the Main Road in the Mulshi taluka, so there is always a bit of noise from the passing vehicles. It’s a local operation we started because we wanted to do something for ourselves in our own area. The shop isn’t very large, and sometimes it gets a bit crowded when a lot of supplies come in at once. We handle various bits and pieces that people in the village need. Living and working in Mulshi means we have to deal with the heavy rains every year, which sometimes makes the road outside a bit of a mess. We don’t have a big corporate team or anything like that. It’s mostly just us and a couple of helpers from nearby. We know most of the people who walk through the door by their first names. It’s not about being the biggest shop around, it’s just about being here when someone needs something. We usually keep the doors open from morning until late evening. The chai stall nearby is where we spend our breaks. It’s a quiet life for the most part, except for the traffic on the main road. We just focus on keeping the shelves stocked and making sure we don't lose track of the accounts in our old ledgers. It’s a bit old-fashioned, but it works for us and the neighbors.
