A R Wani General Store

In Srinagar, near the Khan Complex in Gaw Kadal, is where A R Wani General Store is located. The area around Gow Kadal has its own feel, especially when the weather turns cold. We keep the shop open so people can get their supplies without having to walk too far. Being near Khan Complex helps people find us easily. We sell a bit of everything, from basic food items to small things for the house. The shop isn't very large but we make use of all the wall space. When it snows, things get quiet, and we spend more time just keeping the place warm. In the summers, the streets are much busier. We know most of our customers by their names because they have been coming here for years. It’s a simple life of counting change and restocking the jars of sweets. We don't use any fancy systems. We just write things down in a notebook when we need to. Srinagar is a beautiful place but it can be tough to run a business sometimes. We just keep going. People stop by for a chat as much as they do for the groceries. We have the usual flour, sugar, and tea that everyone needs. It’s just a local shop in Gow Kadal trying to do its bit for the neighborhood.
