Sri Vijay Lakshmi Kirana & General Stores

I run Sri Vijay Lakshmi Kirana & General Stores. We are located at H.No:-39-22-45/2 in Kalinga Nagar. This is part of Madhavadara in Visakhapatnam, and it’s a place where everyone knows everyone else. I spend a lot of time behind the counter here. The store isn't very large, but we pack a lot into the space we have. From early morning, I’m busy checking what stock arrived and what we need to order. Dealing with the 530007 area means seeing a lot of regular locals who live in the nearby blocks. It’s a lot of work keeping up with the house numbers around here, especially H.No:-39-22-45/2 which is our specific spot. I don't use any fancy computers for my records, just a simple notebook and a pen mostly. Sometimes the street gets a bit noisy with traffic, but inside the shop, it’s just the sound of the fan and people asking for prices. I’ve been in Kalinga Nagar for a long time now. It’s a practical way to earn a living. I don't really have a big story to tell, just that we are here every day except for maybe a few holidays. Visakhapatnam is a big city, but our little corner in Madhavadara feels like a small village sometimes because of how people talk to each other. It’s just a plain kirana store doing its thing. I keep things simple because that's what works best for me and the neighborhood.
