Umiya Steels is based in the GIDC area of Vapi, specifically at plot A2/21 in the 2nd Phase. If you know Vapi, you know that the GIDC is a massive industrial hub. It is always noisy and dusty, with trucks constantly moving in and out of the narrow lanes. We are right in the middle of all that action. Our shed is pretty basic, just a lot of metal and the smell of grease and iron. It gets really hot in the summer months, but that’s just how it is working in Gujarat. We don't have a fancy air-conditioned office; we spend most of our time out on the floor or sitting at a small wooden desk near the entrance. Every day is about checking the stock and getting the loads ready for transport. There’s a lot of heavy lifting involved and the machines can be quite loud when they are running. We’ve been in this spot for years and know most of the other guys working in the neighboring plots. We usually start early in the morning to beat the worst of the heat and finish up when the work is done. It’s a tough environment, but it’s what we know. We don't use a lot of fancy words to describe what we do. We just work with steel and try to keep things moving day after day.
