Who buys packaging in Western Cape
The Western Cape packs and exports a great deal of fruit, wine, food and manufactured goods. Citrus, table grapes, apples, pears and stone fruit from Paarl, Worcester, Stellenbosch and Ceres go through packhouses and then the Port of Cape Town, needing cartons, trays and pallet wrap. Epping, Montague Gardens, Bellville and Atlantis hold factories, wholesalers and many packaging suppliers. Wine producers buy bottles, cartons and dividers, while George and the Garden Route add food, retail and online selling. Cape Town's online shops send parcels by courier all over the country. Hot, dry summers speed the fruit season, and winter rain can dampen board, so dry storage and strong cartons matter.
Typical plastic packaging requests in the area come from:
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: woven sacks, produce bags and liners for grain, feed and fertiliser
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: stand-up pouches, bakery bags and film rolls for snacks, coffee and frozen goods
- Warehouses, distributors and exporters: heavy duty bags, bale liners and woven sacks for bulk and repacked goods
- Factories and manufacturers: liners, reel film and sacks for powders, parts and finished goods
- Online shops and ecommerce: poly bags and printed pouches for clothing, accessories and small parcels
- Shops and retail stores: plain and printed bags for the counter, plus bags for loose items
- Cosmetics, candles and health products: small zip pouches and sachet film for samples, soaps and bath salts
