Ultratech Cement Ltd.

In the Baroduary area of Azimganj, you will find Uttam Mandal looking after the Ultratech Cement work. This is up in Murshidabad, West Bengal. It is a place with a lot of history and a very local feel to it. We are not located in a big city hub, so things are done a bit differently here. We rely on the local networks and the people we have known for years. The office is simple and stays pretty cool even when it’s humid outside. We spend a lot of time checking the bags and making sure nothing is damaged by the dampness, which is always a worry in this part of Bengal. The roads can be narrow, so getting the trucks in and out of Azimganj takes some skill and patience. We don't have a big corporate team; it is just a small group of us making sure the supplies are ready. We handle the paperwork for the deliveries and talk to the masons who come by for their daily needs. Every day is about the same, starting early and finishing when the work is done. We don't do anything fancy to attract customers. People know where Uttam is and they know where to find the cement when they have a project. It’s a quiet way of doing business that fits the pace of life here in Murshidabad.
