Who buys packaging in Gauteng

Gauteng is the country's biggest packaging market, driven by manufacturers, food processors, distribution centres and online shops. Industrial areas such as Isando, Spartan and Jet Park on the East Rand, Wadeville and Germiston, Midrand and Rosslyn near Pretoria hold factories, warehouses and many box makers and packaging suppliers. Buyers range from large retailers moving pallets to small businesses sending parcels by courier from Soweto, Centurion and the West Rand. Demand covers corrugated cartons, pallet wrap, courier bags, food containers and printed boxes. Because the province sits on the Highveld, products travel inland to the rest of the country and north to neighbouring markets, so strong cartons matter.
