Paliwal & Sons

Paliwal & Sons is located out in the MIDC area of Sangli, specifically at W-40/41 A. It’s an industrial spot, so there are factories and workshops all around us. We fit right in. My father started this, and now my brothers and I are running it. We do a lot of the heavy lifting ourselves. It’s not the kind of place where you wear a suit to work. We’re usually in our work clothes, getting our hands a bit dirty. The MIDC can be a bit dusty and loud, but it’s where the work happens. We have a small crew of guys who have been with us since the start. We treat them like family because they basically are. We don’t have a fancy mission statement or a set of core values written on the wall. We just know that if we don't do the job right, we won't have any customers left. We take things one day at a time. Sometimes the electricity goes out in the district, and we just have to sit and wait or use the generator. It’s just how things go here in Sangli. We’ve seen the area grow a lot over the years, but our shop has stayed pretty much the same. We like it that way. It’s a local business through and through, and we’re proud to be part of the community here. We just do the work.
