V K Fruit Shop

The V K Fruit Shop is located at New Moti Nagar in Sangam Market, at shop number 8. My morning usually starts at four in the morning when I go to the big mandi to pick out the best fruit for the day. By the time the sun is up, I am back at the shop setting everything up. I try to make the colors look nice, but it's more about making sure everything is fresh. Sangam Market is a local place where people come for their daily groceries. I have been sitting at this spot for years now. I see the same faces every day, people going to work or kids going to school. We have mangoes in the summer and apples in the winter. It depends on what is in season. My hands are usually sticky from something or the other. It is a small shop, just a few wooden crates and a weighing scale. I don't use the digital ones because I trust my old manual scale more. Sometimes I have to throw away stuff that goes bad, which is the hard part of this business. But mostly, it is good to talk to the neighbors. I am not trying to become a big supermarket. I just want to sell good fruit at a fair price so people keep coming back. That is how we survive in Moti Nagar.
