Newcastle: the work, the weather and the print shops
Steel and clothing built this northern KwaZulu-Natal town. The steelworks, engineering shops and the many garment factories in the industrial areas order job cards, labels, safety signs and large runs of workwear, and some factories also take screen printing and embroidery work for the wider region. Madadeni and Osizweni add a constant flow of funeral programmes, church posters, stokvel and wedding print. The CBD and the shopping centres along the main roads hold most print shops and copier dealers, with sign makers in the industrial area. Winters are cold and summer brings hail and wind off the escarpment, so ask about strong frames and laminated print. Specialist stock usually comes up the N11 or from Gauteng.
Typical printing services requests in the area come from:
- Designers, agencies and resellers: short digital runs and finishing for designers and agencies under their own name
- 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
