Who buys packaging in Mthatha
Mthatha is the main commercial centre of the Wild Coast and the former Transkei, serving a wide rural region. Wholesalers, retailers, building suppliers and food sellers in the town buy cartons, bags, takeaway containers and wrapping. Farmers and small producers in the surrounding district, including maize growers, livestock keepers and craft makers, use sacks, bags, tubs and jars. Online sellers rely on courier bags and mailers. Packaging suppliers are not concentrated in Mthatha, so most orders are delivered from East London, Gqeberha or Durban and take a few days longer. The roads can be long and rough in rural areas, so sturdy cartons and good tape help goods arrive in one piece.
Typical packaging tape requests in the area come from:
- Shops and retail stores: sealing returns, stock cartons and online order boxes in the back room
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: closing cartons of dry goods and bakery boxes, with cold-grade tape for fridges
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: sealing produce cartons in packhouses where damp and cold affect adhesion
- Online shops and ecommerce: sealing outbound parcels, with printed tape to show the shop name on every box
- Warehouses, distributors and exporters: high volume rolls for carton sealing and export boxes, plus warning tape
