Who buys packaging in Western Cape
The Western Cape packs and exports a great deal of fruit, wine, food and manufactured goods. Citrus, table grapes, apples, pears and stone fruit from Paarl, Worcester, Stellenbosch and Ceres go through packhouses and then the Port of Cape Town, needing cartons, trays and pallet wrap. Epping, Montague Gardens, Bellville and Atlantis hold factories, wholesalers and many packaging suppliers. Wine producers buy bottles, cartons and dividers, while George and the Garden Route add food, retail and online selling. Cape Town's online shops send parcels by courier all over the country. Hot, dry summers speed the fruit season, and winter rain can dampen board, so dry storage and strong cartons matter.
Typical packaging supplies requests in the area come from:
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: fruit cartons, punnets, crates and pallet wrap for packhouses and markets
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: takeaway containers, paper bags, deli tubs and food-safe wrap for daily service
- Warehouses, distributors and exporters: export cartons, pallet wrap, corner boards and tape by the pallet load
- Factories and manufacturers: custom cartons, dividers, shrink film, pallet wrap and strapping for finished goods
- Online shops and ecommerce: shipping boxes, courier bags, tape and void fill delivered every month
- Shops and retail stores: carrier bags, gift boxes, tissue and display cartons for the shop
- Cosmetics, candles and health products: bottles, jars, tubes, pumps and printed boxes for creams, oils and candles
