Lyka Plastics

Lyka Plastics is located right in the middle of Udhna Chauta Bazar in Surat. If you have ever been to this bazaar, you know how crowded and loud it gets. Our shop is quite narrow and we have plastic goods stacked up to the ceiling. We sell everything from small containers to big buckets and chairs. It is a family-run place and we have been here for many years. We don't have air conditioning, so the summers are quite tough, but we are used to it by now. We don't use computers to keep track of our stock. We just know where everything is by looking at the piles. When someone wants a specific item, we often have to climb up or move several things to get to it. It is a lot of physical work throughout the day. We don't do any advertising. The people walking through Udhna Chauta Bazar see our goods and stop by. We try to keep our prices fair for everyone. Dealing with the constant flow of people in the market is just part of our life. It is not a fancy way to work, but it is honest and keeps us busy. We open up the shop early in the morning and we don't leave until the market starts to quiet down at night. That is just how things go for us in Surat 84.
