Who buys packaging in George
George is the commercial centre of the Garden Route, with timber and furniture makers, dairy and food producers, and a busy tourism and retail economy. Wood products and furniture from the area need cartons, protective corners, foam and pallet wrap, while dairy and farm producers use tubs, bags and cartons. Businesses in Blanco, Pacaltsdorp and the industrial areas around the airport ship goods along the N2 to Cape Town, Gqeberha and Mossel Bay. Retailers and online sellers buy courier bags and mailers. Most large orders come from Cape Town or Gqeberha, and a few local stockists supply smaller quantities. The coast is mild and often damp, which can soften board.

- Factories and manufacturers: rigid presentation boxes for watches, tools and corporate gifts
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: chocolate, biscuit and hamper boxes with food-safe trays and liners
- Shops and retail stores: plain and printed gift boxes for jewellery, homeware and clothing counters
