Printing in East London
On the Buffalo City coast, demand splits between a car plant and its suppliers, the port and the industrial development zone, and the government offices in Bhisho and Qonce up the road. That mix brings tender print, reports, safety signs, parts labels, workwear and fleet branding, plus campaign posters at election time. Mdantsane, a large township next to the city, adds a steady stream of funeral programmes, church posters and stokvel print. Print shops gather in the CBD around Oxford Street, Vincent and Beacon Bay, with sign makers and screen printers in industrial areas such as Wilsonia. Coastal humidity and salt call for marine-grade fixings and laminated outdoor print.
