Prakash General Store

I run Prakash General Store which is located in Hehal, Ranchi. We are right on Ratu Road, which is a very busy part of the city. Being in the 834005 area means there is always something going on outside. The store has been here for a good while. I try to keep it stocked with all the things a family might need for their daily life. It’s not a fancy place and the floor is just plain cement. I don’t have any marketing budget or a big staff to help me out. Most of the time it’s just me here. I’ve lived in Jharkhand my whole life so I know how things work in Ranchi. Ratu Road can be very noisy with all the trucks and cars, but you get used to it after a few weeks. The shop is small and the shelves are a bit old, but they hold the goods just fine. I don't bother with computers or fancy billing systems. I just do it all by hand. Sometimes it takes a little longer to find change for a big note, but people are usually patient. I like the people in Hehal and I’m glad to have a shop here. It’s a practical business for a practical neighborhood. No big promises, just a guy running a store on the side of a busy road. We stay open late most nights because that is when people come home.
