Who buys packaging in Cape Town

Cape Town is a large port city with food, beverage, fishing, wine, cosmetics and clothing industries, and a growing group of online sellers. Industrial areas such as Epping, Montague Gardens, Paarden Eiland, Maitland and Airport Industria hold manufacturers, warehouses and many of the packaging suppliers and box makers in the region. Exporters ship fresh produce, wine and processed food through the harbour and airport, using cartons, trays, pallet wrap and strapping. Restaurants and food sellers buy takeaway containers and paper bags, while retailers and online shops use courier bags, mailers and gift boxes. Strong southeaster winds in summer and winter damp are worth bearing in mind when storing and wrapping goods.
