Shree Gokul Ghee Wale & Caterers

The shop is at number 106 in the Desh Bandhu Gupta Market in Karol Bagh. We spend most of our mornings here getting things ready. Ghee is what we do mostly, alongside the catering work that keeps us moving around. It gets quite crowded in this part of Karol Bagh by midday, so we try to get the heavy lifting done early. People walk in and out all day. Sometimes it's just for a quick question about a function they are planning. We don't have a big fancy office, just the shop space where we keep our supplies. Most days are just about checking the stock and making sure everything is where it should be. The market has been here a long time and we are just one part of it. When the catering orders come in, it gets a bit hectic around here. We have to organize the transport and the staff. It is not always perfect, sometimes things get delayed because of the traffic on the main road outside, but we manage. My family has been doing this kind of thing for a while now. We know the neighbors and the other shop owners well. It is a simple life really. We open up in the morning, do the work, and close when the sun goes down or when the market gets quiet. Nothing more to it than that. We just focus on what we have to do for the day. Sometimes we sit outside on a stool when it is slow and just watch the people go by.
