Jagdish T Gohil

You can find us at number 1, Ganjawala Lane, right behind the Sai Baba Mandir in Surat. It’s a bit of a tucked-away spot, which we actually quite like. Being behind the temple means it’s a bit more peaceful than the main roads, and we get to hear the morning prayers every day. Jagdish T Gohil has been around for a long time, and we’ve always been in this same general area. The office is small and feels a bit old-fashioned. We still use paper ledgers for a lot of our record-keeping because it just feels more reliable than a computer sometimes. There are stacks of files and books everywhere, but we know where everything is. We aren't a large company with a lot of departments. It’s just us here, handling the work as it comes in. We know most of our neighbors by name, and people often stop by just to say hello or have a quick chat. Ganjawala Lane is a narrow street, so it doesn't get a lot of big trucks, which keeps the noise down. We don't have any big mission statements or anything like that. We just believe in doing a good day’s work and being fair to the people we deal with. It’s a quiet, steady kind of business. We’ve seen Surat grow and change so much over the decades, but our little corner behind the Mandir stays pretty much the same. It’s a nice place to spend the day.
