Who buys packaging in George
George is the commercial centre of the Garden Route, with timber and furniture makers, dairy and food producers, and a busy tourism and retail economy. Wood products and furniture from the area need cartons, protective corners, foam and pallet wrap, while dairy and farm producers use tubs, bags and cartons. Businesses in Blanco, Pacaltsdorp and the industrial areas around the airport ship goods along the N2 to Cape Town, Gqeberha and Mossel Bay. Retailers and online sellers buy courier bags and mailers. Most large orders come from Cape Town or Gqeberha, and a few local stockists supply smaller quantities. The coast is mild and often damp, which can soften board.

Typical paper bags requests in the area come from:
- Factories and manufacturers: heavy duty paper bags for packing hardware, spices and dry ingredients
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: SOS, flat and greaseproof bags for bread, chips, pastries and takeaway meals
- Shops and retail stores: carrier bags with handles for clothes, gifts and homeware at the till
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: paper bags for produce, nuts, seed and farm stall sales at markets
- Online shops and ecommerce: kraft bags and inserts for gift orders, thank-you items and local delivery
- Warehouses, distributors and exporters: bundled bags in cartons stored flat to save warehouse space
- Households and offices moving: paper bags for packing small items, shoes and linen, and keeping them sorted
