Print, signs and branding in Durban
A working port city sets the pace here. Freight agents, clearing firms and the logistics yards around the harbour, Bayhead and the South Durban basin keep print shops busy with forms, roll labels, safety signs and fleet branding, while the CBD, the Berea and Umhlanga add corporate stationery, conference print for the ICC and campaign posters at election time. Diwali, Eid, church gatherings, weddings and big funerals bring steady orders for invitations and programmes. Printers, sign makers and screen printers cluster in the CBD, along the Berea, in Springfield Park, Prospecton and Riverhorse Valley.
