Who buys packaging in Newcastle

Businesses here ship metal products, garments, chemicals and farm produce from the surrounding Amajuba district. They buy strapping, pallet wrap, heavy cartons and protective packaging for freight, while retailers and food sellers in Newcastle, Madadeni and Osizweni need bags, takeaway containers and courier packaging.
