Chinar International

You can find Chinar International over in New Friends Colony, at B-510. It’s a residential-feeling area in New Delhi, so it’s a bit more peaceful than the main markets. We operate out of a space that feels more like a house than a big corporate office. There are desks squeezed into rooms and a lot of boxes stacked up in the hallway. We handle things coming in and going out, mostly dealing with shipping and logistics stuff. Most of our day is spent looking at computer screens or talking to people on the phone about where their packages are. The neighborhood has a lot of trees, and sometimes we take a walk outside just to get away from the glare of the monitors and the hum of the computers. It’s not a very fancy setup; we have old wooden desks and chairs that have been around for a long time. There’s always a kettle going for tea because we drink a lot of it while we work. The internet goes slow sometimes, which can be frustrating when we’re trying to track a shipment, but we manage. We aren't a big team, just a few people who have known each other for a long time. We don't really have a lobby or a receptionist, so if someone knocks, one of us just gets up to see who it is. It’s a quiet, steady kind of work where we just keep track of things.
