Manisha Packaging

If you go behind the Laghu Audyogik Shahkari Mandali Ltd. in Sarigam, you will find us at Plot No. 02. That’s where Manisha Packaging is. Being tucked away like that means it’s a bit quieter than being right on the main road, which I actually prefer. We deal with a lot of cardboard and wrapping materials, so the whole place is usually filled with the smell of new paper. It’s a big open shed mostly, with a small office area tucked into one side. We spend the day cutting, folding, and stacking. The stacks of boxes can get pretty high, sometimes they almost reach the ceiling when we are waiting for a pickup. Sarigam has its own pace, and we just follow along with it. The weather can be a bit humid, so we have to make sure the materials stay dry. We don’t have any fancy robots; most of the work is done by hand or with simple machines that we’ve had for years. It’s a bit dusty, and my hands are usually a bit rough from handling the edges of the boxes all day. We just try to get the orders right and out the door on time. There’s no big marketing team here, just us making sure the packaging is sturdy enough for whatever the customers are putting inside. It’s simple, steady work that keeps us going through the week.
