Who buys packaging in Cape Town
Cape Town is a large port city with food, beverage, fishing, wine, cosmetics and clothing industries, and a growing group of online sellers. Industrial areas such as Epping, Montague Gardens, Paarden Eiland, Maitland and Airport Industria hold manufacturers, warehouses and many of the packaging suppliers and box makers in the region. Exporters ship fresh produce, wine and processed food through the harbour and airport, using cartons, trays, pallet wrap and strapping. Restaurants and food sellers buy takeaway containers and paper bags, while retailers and online shops use courier bags, mailers and gift boxes. Strong southeaster winds in summer and winter damp are worth bearing in mind when storing and wrapping goods.
Typical bubble wrap requests in the area come from:
- Online shops and ecommerce: small bubble and bubble bags for glassware, gadgets and fragile parcels sent by courier
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: large bubble around bottles, jars and ceramics in hampers and farm stall boxes
- Shops and retail stores: wrapping breakables at the till and protecting stock delivered to the shop
- Factories and manufacturers: anti-static or large bubble around finished parts and appliances before cartoning
- Warehouses, distributors and exporters: wrapping furniture and fragile pallet items so they survive handling in the warehouse
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: protective layer around bottled olive oil, wine and honey sold direct from the farm
- Cosmetics, candles and health products: small bubble around glass jars, droppers and candle vessels in gift orders
- Households and offices moving: long rolls for lamps, mirrors, glasses and crockery on a house or office move
