Working out of K-1286-87 in the Surat Textiles Market on Ring Road means you are always in the middle of a lot of noise. There are trucks constantly moving and people carrying heavy loads of cloth on their shoulders. Our spot is tucked inside the market where we keep all the different fabrics stacked up high on the shelves. It’s a bit of a maze in here if you don’t know your way around. Every morning begins with a cup of tea while we look at the orders that came in. The air is always full of that specific smell of new cotton and synthetic rolls. We spend most of our hours unrolling fabric, measuring it out for whoever walks in, and then rolling it back up tight so it stays clean. It gets dusty because of all the traffic outside on the Ring Road, so we have to wipe down the counters a lot. Winstar Fabrics isn't some corporate office; it is a working space with fabric scraps on the floor and heavy registers on the desk. Customers come in looking for something specific for their own shops or projects, and we just do our best to find it in the stacks. It can be tiring standing all day on the hard floor, but the market has a rhythm that you eventually get used to. When the market finally quietens down in the evening, we finally get a chance to sit and relax.
