Buying stationery in Mthatha

Mthatha is the commercial centre of the former Transkei and the OR Tambo district, so government departments, the district and King Sabata Dalindyebo municipalities, hospitals and courts are core buyers of files, forms, toner and office furniture through CSD-based procurement. Walter Sisulu University's Mthatha campus and the local TVET college add steady campus demand, and a huge number of rural schools rely on stationery deliveries before the January term, often to villages on gravel roads. Most stock comes about 230 km from East London along the N2, or from Durban, so two to three working days is typical and consolidated orders save on freight.
