Maa Jagdamba Stores

Gopipura is where we have been for a long time now. Our place at Bhoura Colony 2/3706/07 is pretty easy to find if you know the right turns to take. It is one of those neighborhoods where everyone knows everyone else’s business. We spend most of our time stocking the shelves and making sure we have what the local families need for their kitchens and homes. Sometimes the deliveries arrive a bit late and we have to stack big cardboard boxes in the narrow walkway until we can find space for everything. It is not a big corporate supermarket or anything like that, just a store where we handle things ourselves. The morning rush is usually the busiest time when people are getting stuff for breakfast or realized they ran out of milk suddenly. We try to keep things tidy but with so many small items and packets, it is hard to stay perfectly organized all day. The floor is a bit worn down from all the foot traffic over the years. We have a small wooden stool behind the counter where we sit when things go quiet for a few minutes. If it starts to rain, we have to move the outside displays inside very quickly. It is just how a local shop like ours runs. We deal with the same neighbors every day and usually know what they want before they even ask for it. It is a lot of work but it keeps us busy.
