Who buys packaging in Ladysmith

Ladysmith is a regional centre on the N3 in the Uthukela district, with clothing and textile factories, food processing, and farming in the surrounding Klip River valley. Local businesses pack garments, dairy and meat products, grain and general goods for sale in town and for shipping along the N3 to Durban and Gauteng. They buy cartons, pallet wrap, tape, food bags and tubs, while shops and online sellers in Ladysmith and Ezakheni need courier bags and mailers. Packaging suppliers are not concentrated here, so many orders come from Pietermaritzburg, Durban or Gauteng and arrive by road. Summers are hot and dry grassland dust is common, so cover stock while it is stored.
