Sagar Dairy & Sweet

Sagar Dairy & Sweet has been at Shop No. 10 in Pooja App for a while now. We are right on Palanpur Canal Road, so you might have seen us if you live around Palanpur Jakat Naka. Mostly we just deal with the daily milk supplies and some sweets for when people have guests over. It gets pretty hectic in the mornings because everyone wants their milk early for tea. Sometimes the fridge acts up or the delivery truck is a bit late, but we manage somehow. My brother and I take turns sitting at the counter throughout the day. The shop isn't huge, but it fits what we need to keep the crates and the display cases. People come in for a kilo of curd or some paneer for their dinner. In Surat, everyone likes their sweets after a meal, so we try to keep enough stock of the popular items. It’s a bit of a dusty area with all the construction nearby on the canal road, but we keep cleaning the glass cases every few hours to keep things looking decent. We don't really do much advertising or anything, people just know we are here. Sometimes school kids stop by for a cold drink on their way home. It is just a regular life here. The evenings are usually when the aunties from the apartments upstairs come down to buy things for their evening tea. We recognize most faces by now. It’s been a good few years on this road and we just keep going.
