Devraj Bhayani

My shop is located right on the Ring Road, at number 101 near the Fuwara in Gomtipur. If you know the area, you know it is always dusty and there is a lot of noise from the trucks passing by all day and night. I have been at this spot for a long time, and I have seen the neighborhood change quite a bit. Devraj Bhayani is the name on the board outside, though it has faded a bit from the sun over the years. We mostly deal with trade and keeping things moving through the local market. It is a small place, mostly filled with boxes and ledgers that need filling out. I usually sit near the front so I can see who is coming and going. It gets very hot in the summer, so we have a couple of old fans that we keep running. People drop by to talk about orders or just to escape the heat for a minute. We do not do any fancy advertising or anything like that. Word of mouth in Gomtipur is usually enough to keep the business going. We are open early and we do not close until the last job is done. It is a simple life and the work is steady, which is all you can really ask for when you are running a business on the Ring Road. We just keep at it every day.
