Bellville: the work, the weather and the print shops
Bellville is the business heart of the northern suburbs. Offices and medical practices around Tygervalley and the Tyger Waterfront order stationery, brochures and patient forms, while the older CBD along Voortrekker Road, with its busy taxi and train interchange, keeps print shops busy with flyers, posters and church notices. Students at UWC, the CPUT Bellville campus and the business school in Bellville Park print theses, conference posters and society shirts. Industrial areas like Sacks Circle, Stikland and Bellville South hold sign makers, screen printers and copier dealers who cover Durbanville, Brackenfell and Kuils River. Winter rain and the summer southeaster are the outdoor risks, with less salt than on the coast.
