Maggi Garments

Our place is located at No. 7 Ganga Nagar, right off Avinashi Road. Maggi Garments is where we spend most of our time these days. We have a few machines going and some folks helping out with the cutting and stitching. It gets quite noisy when everyone is working at once. There’s always piles of fabric sitting around on the tables. Sometimes we run out of a certain fabric and have to wait for the truck to bring more. The shop isn't very large, so we have to be careful where we step. We make clothes, mostly simple stuff that people wear every day. My brother helps with the accounts and I usually handle the workers. We’ve had some leaks in the roof when it rains hard, so we have to move the cloth to the dry corners. It’s just how it is in this building. People come in to pick up their orders and sometimes they stay for a tea if we aren't too swamped. Avinashi Road is always packed with cars, so getting deliveries in can be a bit of a headache. We don't have a big sign out front, just a small one near the gate. Most people find us by asking the neighbors or knowing the area. We’ve been at this for a few years now and it’s become a routine. It’s honest work and we do what we can.
