Buying stationery in East London

East London is anchored by a large car assembly plant, the East London Industrial Development Zone and a river port, so manufacturers and their suppliers buy labels, cartons, toner and dispatch stationery steadily. Buffalo City metro and government offices in nearby Bhisho, the provincial seat, add large public orders placed through CSD-registered suppliers. Walter Sisulu University, the University of Fort Hare's East London campus and many schools drive campus and January demand. Some stock is held locally, but much comes about 300 km from Gqeberha along the N2 or by road freight from Gauteng and Durban, so allow one to three working days.

Frequently asked questions

What does packaging supplies cost in East London?
It depends on the items, brands and pack sizes, how much you order, how often, and delivery to your address. Fill in the requisition and a packaging supplier serving East London will quote you. Ask whether prices include VAT.
How quickly can stationery be delivered in East London?
Much of the stock for East London comes from Gqeberha, about 300 km away, so allow 2 to 3 working days for items a local supplier does not keep in stock. Printed items take longer, and January is the busiest month.

No. We don't sell, print or deliver anything. We pass your requisition to independent suppliers, who quote you directly. List items, quantities and your address so the quotes are easy to compare.
