V.S.T. Tillers Tractors Ltd.

If you know Sorathiyawadi Circle, then you've probably seen our shop. We are at 7/10, right near the busy part of the road. There’s always a lot of dust and noise from the traffic outside. V.S.T. Tillers Tractors Ltd. deals with tractors and tillers, mostly for the farmers who come in from the outskirts. The floor is usually covered in oil stains and there are stacks of tires in the corner. It’s a messy job, but someone has to do it. My hands are almost always black from the grease by lunchtime. We don’t have a fancy showroom. It’s just a big open space where we keep the machines and the spare parts. People come in frustrated because their equipment broke down right when they needed it for the harvest. We try to get them sorted out as fast as we can. It’s not about being the biggest shop, just being reliable when it counts. We’ve been at this location for years, and the circle has only gotten busier. Sometimes it’s hard to hear each other over the sound of the horns outside. We drink our chai standing up most days because there’s so much to move around. It’s a simple life, working with engines and helping people get back to their fields. We don't use big words or have meetings. We just pick up the wrenches and get to work every morning.
