Who buys packaging in Worcester
Worcester lies in the Breede River Valley, one of the largest areas for wine grapes, deciduous fruit and table grapes in the Western Cape. Packhouses around Worcester, De Doorns and Rawsonville pack grapes, pears, apples and plums for export, using corrugated cartons, trays, liners and pallet wrap in very large volumes at harvest. Wineries and brandy producers need bottles, cartons and dividers. Food processors and the industrial area in town buy tubs, bags and general cartons. Many suppliers deliver from Cape Town and Paarl, about an hour and a half away, and seasonal stock is often reserved in advance. Summers are very hot, so cooling and shade matter.
