Lafarge India Private Limited

In Shimla, we actually operate between two spots. You can find us at 73/6 Ram Bazar, which is right in the heart of the old town, or at our ground floor space in House No. B 211, Sector 3, in New Shimla. Dealing with the hills means everything takes a little longer. Whether it’s the cold winters or the winding roads, we’ve learned to be patient. At Lafarge India Private Limited, our work in Himachal Pradesh is mostly about logistics and making sure supplies get through the mountain passes. The Ram Bazar office is always bustling with people, and it’s a bit cramped, but it has a lot of character. New Shimla is a bit quieter and easier to get to by car. We spend a lot of time on the phone because of the distances between sites. During the winter, we have heaters running under our desks and we usually work with our jackets on. It’s a different kind of challenge compared to the plains. We don’t have a big corporate sign, just our name on the door. It’s a practical setup. We know the local drivers and the shopkeepers around the bazaar. We just try to stay on top of the paperwork and keep things moving despite the weather. It’s a lot of coordination and simple hard work, day in and day out, regardless of whether it’s snowing or sunny.
