Kumar Rice Store

Kumar Rice Store is sitting right at 132, Congress Office Road. This part of Vijayawada, around Arundalpet and Governorpet, is always moving. There is so much traffic and people heading to the offices nearby. Our store is right in the middle of all that. We have bags of rice piled up nearly to the ceiling. It can get a bit tight when we have a lot of stock delivered. We spend a lot of time checking the quality of what comes in. If it isn't right, we don't sell it. Simple as that. The street outside is usually loud with horns and people talking. We have been at this address for a long time now. We've seen the buildings around us grow taller and the road get busier. Inside, it is a bit quieter, except for when we are weighing out orders. We use manual scales mostly because they are reliable. We don't bother with fancy displays. The rice is right there for everyone to see and touch. Some people have been buying from us since their kids were small, and now those kids come in too. It makes us feel like we belong here. We stay open late most days because people stop by on their way home from work. It is a long day for us, but we don't really know any other way. We just keep the door open and wait for the next person who needs a good bag of grain for their dinner table. We hope to stay here for many more years.
