Sri Adithya Kirana & General Stores

This shop, Sri Adithya Kirana & General Stores, is located at H.No: 10-8-26 in New Gajuwaka. We are right near the Old Police Station Road, which is a busy spot in Visakhapatnam. We started this place because we wanted to have a steady business close to home. Every day starts the same way, unlocking the shutters and dusting off the jars of sweets and snacks we keep on the front counter. Most of our customers are locals from the Gajuwaka area who have been coming to us for years. We keep all the basic groceries like atta, sugar, various lentils, and different brands of tea powder. Since we are near the old police station, there is always some movement on the road, and people often stop by to grab a quick bottle of water or a biscuit packet. The shop gets quite warm in the afternoon, but we stay open through the day. Sometimes the delivery truck gets stuck in the narrow lanes around here, which makes things a bit slow. We try to stock what people ask for most. It’s not a big supermarket, just a regular kirana store where you can find what you need for your kitchen. We write down credit in a small notebook for the regulars we know well. It’s hard work standing all day, but seeing the same familiar faces makes it feel okay.
