Packing in horticulture
Overview
Knowing where produce comes from, how
it can be stored, used or consumed, along
with ensuring it can be moved around
safely and arrive in the best possible
condition are all important functions that
packaging provides to horticulture
businesses.

Most packages are currently imported due to few companies manufacturing/supplying food grade packaging materials
Opportunities include:

o Leverage resources and time for core business
o Produce for larger market (farmers & MSMEs)
o Quality assurance
