R K Industries Tamilnadu P Ltd

Our place, R K Industries Tamilnadu P Ltd, is tucked away on Astalashmi Avenue in Seneerkuppam. If you’re heading through Poonamallee, you’ve probably passed near us. Chennai is always hot, and our workshop is no different. We keep the fans running all day just to stay decent. We started this because we wanted to work for ourselves and stay close to home. There’s about five of us who are here every single day. We don't have a big marketing department or anyone to write fancy brochures. We just write down what we do on a piece of paper and give it to the folks who ask. Some of the machines are a bit old, but they work better than the new ones sometimes. You have to know how to handle them. We spend our mornings checking the inventory and our afternoons getting the orders ready. It’s a lot of standing on your feet and getting your hands dirty. We take our breaks together under the shade when it gets too bright outside. We don't have a website that does much, people usually just call the number or show up at the gate. We’ve had some tough months, and some good ones, but we’re still here doing what we do. It’s a solid little business and we’re proud of the fact that we’ve stayed open this long without any big investors.
