Who buys packaging in Northern Cape
The Northern Cape is the largest and least populated province, and its packaging demand follows mining and farming. Iron ore and manganese operations near Kathu, Kuruman and Postmasburg buy protective packaging, pallet wrap and bags, while Kimberley is a service and trading centre. Along the Orange River near Upington, table grapes, dates and raisins are packed in cartons and punnets for export, with the grape season placing heavy pressure on supply. Springbok and the west coast add some fishing and mineral work. The province has few local packaging suppliers, so most orders come from Gauteng, the Free State or Cape Town and travel very long distances. Early ordering is important.
Typical shrink wrap requests in the area come from:
- Farms, packhouses and nurseries: sleeving jars and bottles of sauce, honey and juice sold at farm stalls
- 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
- 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
- Online shops and ecommerce: sealing books, games and boxed gifts so they arrive clean and tamper-evident
