What to know locally in Welkom
Mines and contractors need SANS 1186 safety signs, shaft boards and reflective vehicle decals for bakkies on mine roads. Shops in the CBD and near the malls want fascias, light boxes and window vinyl. Events at the racing circuit and agricultural shows use pull-up banners, flags and backdrops. Strong UV and hail call for UV inks, lamination and strong frames, and wind on the open veld calls for mesh banners.
Welkom: the work, the weather and the print shops
Welkom was laid out as the planned heart of the Free State goldfields, and the deep mines around it are still a large source of print work. Shafts and contractors need safety signs, induction booklets, permit books, reflective decals and embroidered workwear, while the mine hostels and townships of Thabong and Odendaalsrus bring funerals, churches, soccer clubs and stokvels. The wide maize and sunflower farming region around the goldfields adds co-operatives, auctions and agricultural shows, and the motor racing circuit outside town brings big events. Print shops are spread through the CBD and the shopping areas near the town's many traffic circles, with sign makers in the industrial area. Couriers from Johannesburg take a day or so. Hot summers and hail wear signs.
The requests we see from Welkom usually come from:
- Designers, agencies and resellers: printers and sign makers handing large vinyl runs or fitting to a specialist installer
- Government and municipalities: frosting, room numbers and safety marking for clinics, libraries and municipal offices, quoted by RFQ
- Small businesses and start-ups: opening hours, a phone number and a logo cut in vinyl on the shop door
