Rak Logistics

You can find us over at Sarojini Nagar, on the second floor of the Palika Awas building. It’s a busy area, as anyone who knows Delhi will tell you. Being at A-7 means we are right in the thick of things. The stairs up to the second floor can be a bit of a climb if you’re carrying heavy files, but we’re used to it by now. The office is usually filled with the sound of printers and people talking to clients. We handle a lot of the logistical planning from here. It’s not the biggest space, but we’ve made it work for us over the years. Outside, the market is always buzzing with people looking for deals, but up here, it’s all about tracking shipments and making sure the paperwork is in order. We don’t have a fancy lobby or anything like that. It’s just a workspace where we get things done. Sometimes the electricity acts up, but we have a backup to keep the computers running. The staff here has been together for a while, so we work well as a group. We know the local chai wala by name, and that’s where most of our planning happens during the mid-morning break. It’s a straightforward operation. We just focus on the task at hand and try to stay ahead of the schedules as best as we can. Every morning we start with a quick check of what arrived overnight and then get straight into the calls.
