Who buys packaging in Welkom
Welkom grew around the Free State goldfields, and its packaging demand is tied to mining services, farming and local trade. Engineering workshops and mining suppliers ship parts and equipment in strong cartons and wrapped pallets, although the industry has shrunk over the years. Surrounding maize, sunflower and livestock farms create demand for bags and bulk packaging. Local bakeries, butcheries and wholesalers buy food packaging, while shops and small online sellers use bags, cartons and courier packaging. Packaging suppliers serve the area from Welkom itself, from Bloemfontein and from Johannesburg, so buyers often combine orders to reduce delivery cost.

Typical glass jars requests in the area come from:
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: jars for farm-stall honey, chutney, jam and dried herbs sold at markets
- Shops and retail stores: decorative storage jars and candle jars for gift and homeware shelves
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: lug cap jars for jam, pickles and sauces, and small screw-top jars for spices
- Factories and manufacturers: bulk jars for sauces, relish and salsa filled on a small production line
