Pavithra Provision Store

You can find us at 2-541, right there in Fathekhan Pet. Being on Gnt Road means we get a mix of local folks and people just passing through on their way somewhere else. Pavithra Provision Store has been around for a bit, and we’ve seen the road change quite a bit over the years. It’s a straightforward shop. We stock the essentials like pulses, oil, sugar, and the occasional bag of chips. The fans in the ceiling squeak a lot during the summer, but they keep the air moving while we work. I spend most of my day sitting behind the counter, weighing out grams of spices or counting change. It’s not exciting, but it’s steady. Sometimes the delivery trucks are late and we run out of something popular, and I have to apologize to the regulars. They usually understand. We keep things pretty informal here. If someone forgot their wallet, we might let it slide until tomorrow if we know them well enough. The shelves are made of old wood and they’ve seen better days, but they hold the weight just fine. I don't use a computer for the accounts; I still like my paper books. It feels more real that way. We aren't trying to be a big supermarket. We are just a local spot where you can grab what you need for the kitchen without any fuss. It's just a way to make a living.
