Kits
Export Week
Export Week is for branded kits moving through freight, customs paperwork, and tighter packing requirements.
Freight-ready branded kit planning
Export Week is built for branded kits that need to travel beyond South Africa without becoming a packing mess. It suits campaigns where freight, customs paperwork and tighter carton planning matter as much as the giveaway itself.
Export Week starts with destination, carton limits, and what customs paperwork needs to match the contents. A distributor pack going to Namibia will be built differently from trade show stock heading to Europe or the Middle East. We look at item size, print finish, and how each piece will sit inside an export carton without wasted space.
Shipping labels and packing lists need to agree with what is actually inside the branded set. Small changes like removing loose filler, choosing flatter items, or grouping components in clear inner bags can make receiving easier at the other end. That matters when kits are opened by freight teams, customs staff, or overseas event crews before your client sees them.
What goes into the carton
The pack is built around items that travel well and still present properly on arrival. Think branded notebooks, pens, lanyards, apparel, mugs, and simple printed inserts chosen for weight, break risk, and carton efficiency. Export Week also maps the count per carton so replenishment and handover are easier once the shipment lands.
Use Export Week when the branded pack must leave South Africa with clear counts, labels, and supporting documents. We can shape the kit around distributor drops, conference handouts, and send-off packs, then note what should go into the outer carton paperwork. If you need to send details through the contact form, include the destination country, item list, and any date tied to freight booking or exhibition build.
South African export packing realities
Johannesburg dispatch planning often affects export kits because freight forwarding, airport cargo, and warehouse handover timings need room for checking. Teams may also be working around collections from client offices, printers, or stock held across Gauteng. When part of the range is still local and part is crossing a border, it helps to split what stays in SA from what must be packed for export.
Longer travel can be rough on soft packaging, printed sleeves, and anything with a delicate finish. Heat, humidity, compression, and repeated handling all matter when cartons move through depots and inspections. For that reason, Export Week leans toward sturdier branding packs with simpler assembly and fewer loose parts.

Details worth sending upfront
Use Export Week for trade shows, distributor drops, and send-offs that need a South African branding pack.
Share the destination, recipient type, and whether the kits are for a trade show, distributor handover, or internal send-off. It also helps to note branded items that cannot be substituted, any carton quantity target, and whether documents must travel inside the shipment. With that brief, the pack can be planned around freight handling instead of only shelf appeal.
