Proudly South African. Proudly Big Box.

This Heritage Month, we’re celebrating more than our history. We’re celebrating the people, values, relationships and innovation that have shaped Big Box Containers into the business we are today.

Founded in 1997, our journey has always been built on three simple principles:

  • Trust
  • Loyalty
  • Just honest business

From our proudly South African roots, we’ve grown alongside our customers, staying close to the ground, understanding their needs and delivering practical container solutions that make a difference.

Our journey has been one of continuous innovation. From launching our refrigerated containers to advancing our technology, and in 2019 introducing our single-phase refrigerated container, we’ve continued to find new ways to serve the South African market.

Today, we’re proud to be recognised as a market leader in refrigerated container solutions in South Africa.

In 2023, the acquisition of Big Box by Container Conversions opened a new chapter, expanding our geographical reach across South Africa and beyond, while keeping our local roots firmly at the heart of who we are.

We’re also proud of our Level One B-BBEE status and our role in contributing to a more inclusive South African economy.

For us, heritage isn’t just about looking back.
It’s about building a legacy for the future.

A legacy built on relationships.
A legacy built on innovation.
A legacy built on trust.
A legacy that is proudly local.

This Heritage Month, we celebrate where we’ve come from, who we are today, and the next generation we’re building for.

Proudly South African.
Proudly Big Box.
Proudly on the ground.
