Ravi Namkeen & Gazak Bhandar

You can find us over at New Moti Nagar in the Ganesh Market area, specifically at shop number 40. It’s called Ravi Namkeen & Gazak Bhandar. We’ve been operating from this spot for a long time. The market is always crowded, especially in the evenings when everyone comes out to buy snacks. We mostly deal with namkeens and, when the weather gets colder, the gazak starts selling really well. I’m usually behind the counter or checking the batches in the back. It’s a bit noisy with the fans and the sounds of the market outside. The shop isn't fancy at all, just counters filled with different types of snacks in glass jars and plastic packets. We try to keep things fresh, so we’re always moving bags around. Sometimes it feels like there’s not enough room for all the stock we have to keep. People stop by after their shift to get something salty or sweet to take home. It’s a lot of manual work, lifting heavy bags and weighing out portions for customers who want just a little bit of this or that. Ganesh Market has a lot of energy, and being at number 40 puts us right in the middle of it. We don't have a big team, just a few of us making sure things run okay and the customers get what they came for. It's just a regular local snack shop doing its thing every day and night in Moti Nagar.
