Shakti Selection

We are right across from Meghani Tower in the Meher Park area of Surat. If you know that part of town, you know it gets quite busy with all the traffic and people moving about. Shakti Selection is just a local spot where we keep a variety of things for people to look through. It's not a huge showroom with bright lights and fancy music playing. We just have our racks and our counters. We spend a lot of time just folding things and making sure the shop looks decent enough for whoever walks in next. Being opposite the tower means we see a lot of people every day. Some just peek in through the window and others come in to chat or find something specific they need for a wedding or just for daily wear. Surat is a city where everyone is always working, and we are no different. We open the shutters in the morning and we don't really close until late. The sun hits the front of the shop in the afternoon, so it gets a bit warm inside, but we have the fans going. We try to keep a good variety of stock so there's something for everyone, but we don't make a big deal out of it. It’s a family-run kind of thing, and we just do our job the best we can without any fuss or complicated systems that you see in the bigger malls.
