Qutbi Kirana

Qutbi Kirana is a small shop located in the Main Bazar at Kauka. If you live around here, you probably pass by us every day when you go to get your groceries. It is just a simple kirana store where we keep the essentials like rice, pulses, oil, and snacks. The shop is small, so we have to stack things high up on the shelves to make everything fit. It can be a bit of a squeeze when more than two people come in at once, but we make it work. I have been running this place for years and I know almost everyone who walks through the door. We hear all the local news and gossip while weighing out the sugar or flour. It is not a fancy supermarket with bright lights and scanners. We do most of the math in our heads or on a small pad of paper. Sometimes we run out of something because the delivery truck could not make it to Kauka on time, but our customers are understanding. The Main Bazar is always lively, and we like being right in the center of it. We do not have any big goals of expanding or opening more branches. We just want to keep serving the people in our village and making sure they have what they need for their kitchens. It is a quiet, steady life and that suits us just fine. We appreciate everyone who stops by.
