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.
