Pratik Nottling Co.

Our place, Pratik Nottling Co., is over at Survey No. 331/2, Plot No. 5. We are located on Basara Road. It’s a straightforward workshop where we handle our daily work. The building is a simple one, made of bricks and a tin roof that makes a lot of noise when it rains. We’ve been at this spot for several years and know all the neighbors. It’s not a polished corporate environment. We don't have a website or any social media presence. We just rely on people knowing where we are. The road outside is often dusty, and we have to wipe down the machinery every morning before we start. There are only a few of us working here. We don't have fancy titles or office cubicles. Everyone knows how to run the machines and how to pack the crates. We eat our lunch together under the shade of the tree out front when the weather is nice. We don't use any complicated software to run the business; a simple notebook and a pen do the job just fine. It’s a lot of repetitive work, but we find a good rhythm in it. We finish up in the evening and head home, ready to do it all again the next day. The work is steady and it keeps us busy, which is all we really ask for. Sometimes the stray dog from the corner sleeps by our gate.
