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.
Typical shrink wrap requests in the area come from:
- Online shops and ecommerce: sealing books, games and boxed gifts so they arrive clean and tamper-evident
- Restaurants, takeaways and food producers: bundling bottled drinks and wrapping cheese, tinned goods and dry goods in food-safe film
- Shops and retail stores: wrapping display packs, cards and boxed stock for shelves and counters
- Factories and manufacturers: covering parts and bundling product multipacks on a small packing line
- Warehouses, distributors and exporters: PE film hoods and heavy sheets over outdoor pallets and building materials
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: sleeving jars and bottles of sauce, honey and juice sold at farm stalls
- Cosmetics, candles and health products: tamper-evident bands on jars and tubs, and film around gift sets of soap and candles
