Gqeberha notes on parts, gas & equipment
Struandale, Deal Party, Markman and Newton Park have refrigeration wholesalers and spares counters that technicians from across Nelson Mandela Bay use. Coated condenser coils, fan motors, door seals and refrigerant are in steady demand. Families in Motherwell, KwaZakhele and Kariega buy chest freezers for bulk meat, and a freezer kept in a sheltered spot away from the salt wind tends to last longer.
What keeps Gqeberha cold
Gqeberha is famously windy, and the wind carries salt spray far inland, so condenser coils and fan motors on fridges, freezers and cold room units corrode quickly. The city's vehicle and component plants in Kariega, Despatch and Struandale run large canteens, and the Coega area has newer factories and logistics depots. The harbour handles fruit and fish, and the squid fleet needs freezing on shore. Beachfront flats in Summerstrand and Humewood are rented to students and holidaymakers, while KwaZakhele, Motherwell and New Brighton have many spaza shops with bottle coolers. Coils and fans eaten by salt are the classic local fault, followed by display coolers that give up in a berg wind heat wave.
Typical chest freezers requests in the area come from:
- Factories and cold stores: freezers for staff canteens and sample storage on site
- Households: a 200 L freezer in the garage for monthly bulk meat buying
- Shops, cafes and supermarkets: a lockable freezer for ice, frozen chicken and ice lollies at a spaza
