Who buys packaging in Mthatha

Mthatha is the main commercial centre of the Wild Coast and the former Transkei, serving a wide rural region. Wholesalers, retailers, building suppliers and food sellers in the town buy cartons, bags, takeaway containers and wrapping. Farmers and small producers in the surrounding district, including maize growers, livestock keepers and craft makers, use sacks, bags, tubs and jars. Online sellers rely on courier bags and mailers. Packaging suppliers are not concentrated in Mthatha, so most orders are delivered from East London, Gqeberha or Durban and take a few days longer. The roads can be long and rough in rural areas, so sturdy cartons and good tape help goods arrive in one piece.
