Who buys packaging in Durban
Durban is the busiest port in the country, so a great deal of packaging here is built around export and import freight. Manufacturers, food processors, chemical and plastics firms, and distributors in Prospecton, Jacobs, Pinetown and the southern basin ship in cartons, pallet wrap and strapping. Online shops and retailers across the metro need courier bags, mailers and gift boxes, while the sugar and agricultural trade along the coast uses sacks, bags and bulk packs. Humid summers and salty air can weaken board, so many buyers ask for moisture-resistant cartons. Packaging suppliers and box makers are based in the industrial areas of the south and west and deliver across the metro.
Typical cosmetic packaging requests in the area come from:
- Factories and manufacturers: bulk tubes, pumps and jars filled on a contract-manufacturing line
- Warehouses, distributors and exporters: cartons of empty containers stored on pallets for fillers and brand owners
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: small jars and bottles for infused oils, honey and gourmet extracts sold as gifts
- Online shops and ecommerce: small droppers, pumps and tubes plus mailer boxes for skincare sold online
- Shops and retail stores: boxed serums, creams and perfumes with matching containers for shelf display
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: bottles and jars for aloe, rooibos and marula oil products made on farms
- Households and offices moving: leak-proof travel bottles and jars for toiletries and cosmetics when relocating
