Vigneshwara Exports Ltd.

We operate out of the Arihant Compound in Bhiwandi, specifically in Sector J-4 and J-5. We have Galas 5 through 10, so it’s a pretty large space to keep track of. Being near Kopar Village means we are tucked away in the industrial heart where all the big warehouses are. The place is basically a giant shed with high ceilings and metal roofs that get pretty loud when it rains. We spend our days loading and unloading trucks that come in from the port or from other factories. There are forklifts moving around and people shouting to be heard over the engine noises. It’s a lot of logistics and checking lists to make sure we don't lose track of anything. Our office is just a small partitioned area in one of the units where we keep the computer and the files. It gets quite dusty with all the movement, and it’s always a bit of a struggle to keep the paperwork clean. We aren't trying to be fancy; we just need the space to move goods efficiently and we have plenty of tea breaks to stay sharp. The guys working the floor know the layout of the compound by heart, even though it all looks the same to an outsider. It’s a busy, gritty environment, but that is just how export life is in Bhiwandi. We stay here until the last truck is gone.
