It was previously known as Ashra <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/7432387658/ photo]</small>; the frontage changed to read "Sun Travels" in May or June 2013 <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/9031657969/ photo]</small>, but nothing much changed inside the shop, and they still sell groceries and fresh vegetables as before (including 4kg bags of onions and 10kg bags of rice). In 2015 it changed again to Nilgiris, as part of the Connected Croydon shopfront improvement program, but again little seemed to change inside the shop. |
<b>Note:</b> as of June 2013 the frontage has changed to read "Sun Travels" <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/9031657969/ photo]</small>, but they seem to still be selling groceries and the staff seemed to think the shop might continue as a combination grocers/travel agent. |
