What to know locally in Northern Cape
Print shops in Kimberley serve government departments, Sol Plaatje University students and the city's schools with reports, theses and event programmes. In Upington and Kakamas, farms and wine cellars along the Orange River order product labels and brochures. Springbok and the Namaqualand towns print guesthouse brochures and maps for the flower season. Small towns often order funeral programmes and invitations from Kimberley or Upington, so leave time for courier.
Print, signs and branding in Northern Cape
In the country's largest and emptiest province, a single print job can travel hundreds of kilometres. Kimberley is the main centre, with the provincial government, Sol Plaatje University and the city's print shops and sign makers clustered around the CBD. Iron ore and manganese mines near Kathu, Postmasburg and Hotazel buy safety signage, workwear and vehicle branding, while the Orange River farms around Upington and Kakamas order grape and raisin labels and branded caps. Solar plants, Namaqualand flower tourism and small Karoo towns add smaller jobs. Many orders come from Gauteng or Cape Town by courier. The sun here is intense, so cheap outdoor vinyl fades and cracks fast.
The requests we see from Northern Cape usually come from:
- Designers, agencies and resellers: wide format poster runs for designers and agencies delivered unbranded
- Government and municipalities: health and awareness posters for clinics, libraries and municipal offices
- Small businesses and start-ups: window specials and opening posters for a salon, takeaway or hardware store
