Who buys packaging in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg sits on the N3 between Durban and Gauteng, which makes it a convenient base for manufacturers and distributors.

Timber and forestry operations in the surrounding hills, dairy and farm producers in the Midlands, and craft food makers around Howick and Hilton buy bags, tubs, jars and boxes for local and regional sale. Retailers and online shops use courier bags and mailers. Summers are warm and wet, and frost is common in winter on the higher ground, so ask suppliers about storage and delivery times.
