Sri Uma Maheshwari Enterprises

We are at Shop Number 2-89, right across from the Venkojipalem Bus Stop in the HB Colony area. It is a very convenient location because of the bus stop; there are always people standing around waiting for their ride. Sri Uma Maheshwari Enterprises is a small operation, and we like it that way. We mostly deal with local customers who live in the colony or are just passing through. The shop is filled with various items, and sometimes it’s hard to see the back wall. We have a small stool behind the counter where we sit when things are quiet. The noise from the buses pulling in and out is constant, but you stop noticing it after a few days. We start the day by opening up the shutters and cleaning the front area. Most of the work involves talking to people about what they need and looking through our stock to see if we have it. We don't have any big corporate goals; we just want to make sure the shop is open on time and the shelves are stocked. HB Colony is a nice place to be, and we enjoy seeing the familiar faces every morning. We often have a quick chat with the bus drivers during their breaks. It’s a simple life, running a shop in a busy neighborhood like this. We just take it one day at a time.
