Perfect Solvochem

If you head down to Neelganga Chauraha in Ujjain, you’ll find us at number 51. We’ve been at this crossroads for quite some time, and it’s a landmark for us. The area around the tehsil is always humming with people coming and going for all sorts of errands. Our shop is focused on solvents and chemical supplies, which sounds more complicated than it really is. Most of the time it’s just about moving drums and filling out invoices for local workshops. The office part is tucked in the back, where the ledger books stay dusty on the top shelves. We have a couple of old chairs for visitors, though they aren't the most comfortable things in the world. The walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but we’re usually too busy with deliveries to worry about that. When the summer heat hits Ujjain, the cooler in the corner is the most popular thing in the building. We know most of our neighbors by name, and we usually end up chatting with the tea seller every afternoon. We don't have a big corporate structure or anything like that. It’s just a few of us making sure the orders are correct and the customers get what they came for. We like the rhythm of the chauraha and the way the business has become part of the local scenery here.
