Shree Mahesh Granites Pvt. Ltd.

Shree Mahesh Granites Pvt. Ltd. is situated along the Kelwa-Amet Road in the Merda area. This part of the region is famous for stone, so we are surrounded by similar businesses. We focus mostly on granite here. It is much harder than marble and requires different tools to cut. The sound of the saws is something you get used to after a few days. We have a decent sized yard in Merda where we keep the finished slabs. My father started this and now we run it as a private limited company, but it still feels like a small family operation. We have guys who have been working with us for over ten years. They know exactly how to spot a flaw in a piece of granite just by looking at it. We spend most of our day coordinating with the quarry owners and the transporters. The road out front is always busy with tractors and lorries. Sometimes we have to stop work because the heat is too much in the afternoon. We drink a lot of cold water and stay in the shade of the warehouse when we can. We don't do much in the way of marketing. Usually, people just know us from our reputation in the local market. We just try to be honest about what we have in stock. It is a dusty, noisy life but it is our life and we are proud of it. We just keep the machines oiled and the slabs moving out the gate.
