Shree Modheshwari Masala Bhandar

Shree Modheshwari Masala Bhandar is tucked into Plot No.C 24/1 inside the Hathikhana Market Yard. If you know the APMC Market, you know how crazy it gets in the mornings. There are trucks everywhere and people shouting about prices. We’ve been in Block Apmc for a long time now. Our shop is just a basic space filled with big metal tins and jute bags. We deal with masalas all day long. It's the kind of place where your throat always feels a bit scratchy from the pepper and the turmeric in the air. We open up before the sun is even fully up because that’s when the traders start moving. My hands are usually stained yellow from the turmeric, and it doesn’t wash off easily. We don't really do much advertising; people just know we are here in the market yard. The market is like its own little world, with its own rules and its own crowd. Sometimes we sit on the wooden bench outside the shop and watch the chaos go by. It’s a hard place to work because of the heat and the noise, but it’s home for us. We just keep the records in a simple notebook and make sure the scales are working right. Every day is the same routine of unloading and then weighing things out for whoever walks in. It’s just how things go at Plot C 24/1 for us.
