Satyanarayan Pharma

We are Satyanarayan Pharma, located right near Hotel Pearl in Ashok Nagar. Because we are so close to the hotel, we get a mix of local residents and people just passing through the city. The street outside is usually lined with cars and rickshaws, so it’s a lively place to work. Our shop has a glass front that gets a lot of sun in the morning. We spend a lot of time wiping down the counters and organizing the strips of medicine. It’s a lot of small tasks that add up. We have to be quick because sometimes a whole group of people walks in at once. The space is a bit narrow, so we have to be careful not to bump into each other behind the counter. We’ve got a big clock on the wall that ticks quite loudly, which is sometimes the only sound when the street goes quiet for a minute. We don't do any big advertising. Most people find us because they’re staying at the hotel or they live just around the corner in Ashok Nagar. It’s just a basic pharmacy setup with shelves from floor to ceiling. We keep track of everything manually for the most part. It’s a steady job and we try to be helpful whenever someone comes in with a prescription or a question about what we have in stock. It's just us doing what we can to keep the shop running smoothly.
