Patel Traders

You can find Patel Traders at number 66 on Malpe Cross Road in the Santhekatte area. We are located right where the road branches off, so there is always a lot of movement around us. Being in Santhekatte for so long, we’ve become a familiar sight for the people living here. We are a trading business, so we deal with all sorts of different items depending on the season and what’s in demand. Our shop isn't anything special to look at from the outside. It’s just a standard trading post with a lot of stock piled up. We don't have a lot of room for a fancy waiting area, so customers usually just stand by the counter. The noise from Malpe Cross Road is something we’ve just gotten used to over the years. We aren't a big company with lots of departments. It’s just a small team of us handling everything from the accounts to moving the crates. We don't bother with marketing or social media. Most of our work comes from long-standing relationships we’ve built up over time. People know they can just stop by and talk to us directly. It’s a very hands-on way to run a business. We focus on the daily tasks and making sure the inventory is right. It’s a simple, local operation and we like it that way in Santhekatte.
