Sadhana Store

Sadhana Store sits right on Plot No. 12 along Alkapuri Road in Nalasopara East. We are directly opposite the railway station, so the sound of trains and the station announcements are basically the soundtrack to our day. It gets incredibly crowded during the morning and evening rush hours when commuters are sprinting to catch their ride or heading home. Our store is packed from floor to ceiling with all kinds of daily items like soap, snacks, and household supplies. We don't have much extra space, so we have to be really organized with how we stack the shelves. The floor gets a lot of mud and dust from the street because of all the people walking in and out constantly. We spend a good portion of the afternoon restocking the things that sold out during the morning rush. There is always a delivery truck trying to park nearby, which is hard because the road is so busy. The fan overhead rattles a bit, but it helps keep the place cool when the sun hits the front of the shop. We know most of the regular commuters by face even if we don't know all their names. It’s a fast-paced environment where you have to be quick on your feet. We keep a small stool behind the counter, but there isn't much time to actually sit down until late at night when the station finally gets quiet.
