Parag Gifts & Watches Pvt. Ltd.

Our place is out in the G.I.D.C. Aji Vashat area, specifically on Road No. K, at Plot No. 144/A. It is an industrial zone, so it is all warehouses and small factories around here. Parag Gifts & Watches is what we do. We have been here in Phase II for a good while. The Matel Chowk is the main landmark people use to find us when they are lost. It is a dusty part of town. Every morning we have to wipe down the display cases because the road work nearby never seems to end. We deal with watches and gift items, mostly in bulk quantities. It is not like a shop you would find in a mall. It is a warehouse with an office attached to the front. The air conditioner works when it wants to, so we use fans mostly. We spend most of our time counting stock and checking movements on the ledger. There are a lot of ticking sounds in the office, which you get used to after working here for a week. The staff here has been around for many years. We eat lunch together in the back room and talk about our families. It is a very straightforward business. We buy things, we store them, and then we sell them. We do not have a marketing department. It is just a few of us trying to keep the records straight. It is hard work, but we get it done.
