Volga General Stores

You can find Volga General Stores right at Shop No-19 on the Main Road in Birlagram Nagda. We are situated very close to the Birlagram Main Market, so there’s always a lot of foot traffic and people moving about. It’s a small shop, but we pack a lot into it. Most of our time goes into checking the shelves and making sure we haven't run out of the things people ask for every day. It gets quite crowded in the evenings when everyone is heading home from work or finishing their shopping in the market. We know many of the faces that come through the door since they live or work right nearby. It’s a friendly enough atmosphere, though it can get a bit loud when the market is in full swing. We don’t have any fancy displays or anything, just plain shelves and a counter where we stand. Sometimes the weather makes it hard to keep the shop cool, but we just leave the door open for a breeze. We’ve been here for a good while and it feels like home to us now. Every morning starts with opening up the shutters and sweeping the front. It’s simple work but it keeps us busy from start to finish. If you’re walking through the main market area, you can’t really miss us on the main road.
