Johannesburg notes on print shop
Braamfontein and Auckland Park campuses keep print shops busy with theses, posters and society flyers, while law firms and banks in Marshalltown order letterheads, business cards and bound reports. In Soweto, especially Orlando, Diepkloof and Meadowlands, many requests are for funeral programmes, unveiling cards and church calendars needed within a day or two. Traders around Park Station and the Bree Street taxi rank buy A5 flyers by the thousand, so ask for a litho price on long runs.
Johannesburg: the work, the weather and the print shops
Johannesburg's inner city still runs on paper and cloth. The eastern blocks of the CBD around the fashion district hold cutting rooms, garment makers and small screen printing and embroidery workshops, while older print works and finishing houses sit in Doornfontein, Jeppestown and City Deep. Demand comes from every direction at once: taxi rank traders wanting flyers, churches ordering funeral programmes, students at Wits and the University of Johannesburg printing posters, and stadium events at Nasrec and Ellis Park needing banners and branded shirts. Most jobs are collected, or cross the metro by courier and motorbike delivery the same day or overnight. Outdoor work faces strong Highveld sun and violent summer hailstorms, so ask for UV-resistant inks and properly fixed sign frames.
Typical printing services requests in the area come from:
- Small businesses and start-ups: cards, flyers and price lists to get a new business noticed in the neighbourhood
- Shops, restaurants and salons: menus, price tags, promotional flyers and window posters changed with every special
- Events, conferences and clubs: programmes, tickets, name badges and posters for conferences, races and expos
