Vijay Dhayagude

My name is Vijay Dhayagude and I run things from Digvijay Apartment, which is right in the 692-693 area of Market Yard. If you know the Market Yard, you know it is one of the busiest places you can be. It is full of trucks, crates, and people shouting from early in the morning. My office is inside the apartment building, so it is a bit quieter than the main market floor, but you can still feel the hustle. I have been working out of this spot for a good number of years. It is not a big setup with a lot of employees. Usually, it is just me or maybe a helper dealing with the daily paperwork and phone calls. The space is filled with files and registers. Everything is kept in a way that makes sense to me, even if it looks a bit messy to someone else. People come by to discuss business or settle accounts. It is a very traditional way of working. I do not bother with fancy furniture or modern office designs. The focus is on the trade and making sure everything is recorded properly. Being in Market Yard means my day starts quite early when the produce starts arriving. It is a long day, but it is what I am used to. This apartment has been my base for a long time.
