Sukalp Tea

Sukalp Tea is basically run out of our house, number 2212 in Revenue Colony. Shirur is where we grew up, so setting up the business here made the most sense for us. We are quite close to Manik Chand Hospital, which most people around here know well. It’s not a big factory or anything like that. It’s just a space where we handle our tea supplies and get things ready. We spend our mornings sorting through things and making sure the orders are ready for the day. Sometimes it gets a bit crowded with all the boxes in the hallway, but we manage. My neighbors probably see the delivery trucks coming and going more than they’d like, but that is part of it. Working from the colony is convenient. We don’t have a big team of workers. It’s mostly just us doing the heavy lifting and keeping track of the books ourselves. The tea we have is just what we like to drink. We don't use any fancy machines or automated systems. Everything is done by hand, from checking the leaves to taping up the packages. Being near the hospital means there is always some movement on the street, even late at night. It feels good to be part of the local community in Shirur. We aren't trying to become a massive corporation. We just want to keep the shop running and make sure the tea gets to where it needs to go. It’s a lot of work, but it’s our work.
