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 plastic packaging requests in the area come from:
- Factories and manufacturers: liners, reel film and sacks for powders, parts and finished goods
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: stand-up pouches, bakery bags and film rolls for snacks, coffee and frozen goods
- Shops and retail stores: plain and printed bags for the counter, plus bags for loose items
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: woven sacks, produce bags and liners for grain, feed and fertiliser
- Online shops and ecommerce: poly bags and printed pouches for clothing, accessories and small parcels
- Warehouses, distributors and exporters: heavy duty bags, bale liners and woven sacks for bulk and repacked goods
- Households and offices moving: large clear bags for bedding and clothes, and dust covers for furniture
