Who buys packaging in Gqeberha
Gqeberha is built on motor manufacturing, the port and the Coega Special Economic Zone, so a great deal of packaging here serves industry. Component makers in Markman, Perseverance and Struandale supply the vehicle plants and ship by road and sea, using returnable packs, strong cartons, foam and protective packaging. The port and Coega move citrus, wool and other exports, which need export cartons, pallet wrap and strapping. Food makers, retailers and online shops in Walmer, Newton Park and Humewood buy bags, containers and courier packaging. Packaging suppliers and box makers are based in the industrial areas and deliver across Nelson Mandela Bay. Wind and coastal damp are worth considering.
