What to know locally in Northern Cape
Mining contractors in the Kalahari towns of Kathu and Kuruman order embroidered overalls, reflective vests and branded caps in bulk, often in short notice batches. Schools in Kimberley and Upington order sports kit and matric jackets. Grape harvest teams on the Orange River farms are often given branded caps and shirts. Local screen printers are few outside Kimberley and Upington, so many orders are made in the metros.
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.
Typical screen printing requests in the area come from:
- Designers, agencies and resellers: contract screen printing for clothing labels, promotional suppliers and agencies
- Government and municipalities: awareness campaign shirts and bags for clinics, elections and municipal drives
- Small businesses and start-ups: merchandise shirts and totes for a brewery, a band or a market stall
