Vyas Provision Stores

Being at Goregaon Das Wadi 6 means dealing with a lot of narrow lanes and people constantly moving about. Vyas Provision Stores has been in this spot for a while now. It’s a small place, packed with sacks of rice and lentils and whatever else people around here use for their daily cooking. The space is tight, so you have to be careful not to knock anything over when you’re walking between the rows. We don't have those big bright signs or anything; just the name on the board above the door. Most days start at six when the milk crates arrive and we have to stack them up before the neighbors start waking up. Das Wadi can get pretty crowded, especially in the evenings when everyone is coming home from work. We try to keep things organized, but when three different suppliers show up at once, it’s a bit of a mess for an hour or two. The ceiling fan is old and makes a clicking sound, but it keeps the air moving when it gets humid. We know most of the families living in the nearby buildings. They send their kids down to pick up sugar or oil. It’s not a complicated business. We just make sure we have the stock ready. Sometimes we run out of something and have to wait for the next truck. That’s just part of running a store in Goregaon. We don't really do deliveries, so people just come and carry their own bags home.
