Flyer printing in JHB,
explained.
Common questions JHB customers ask when ordering flyers.
How much do flyers cost to print in Johannesburg?
Indicative pricing for A5 flyers on 135gsm gloss, double-sided, full colour: 500 flyers typically run R450–R1,200, 1,000 flyers R650–R1,800, and 2,500 flyers R1,200–R3,000. Heavier stocks (170–250gsm), matte finishes, lamination or special sizes add 20–50% to the base price. Quantities above 1,000 usually benefit from offset (litho) printing which improves per-unit pricing significantly.
How quickly can I get flyers printed in JHB?
Standard digital print turnaround is 2–4 working days for runs under 1,000 flyers. Same-day printing is available from several Sandton, Randburg and CBD suppliers, usually with collection rather than delivery. Litho print (for larger volumes) takes 4–7 working days because plates need to be made. If you have a deadline, mention it in the brief — we'll prioritise suppliers who can meet it.
What's the best paper weight for flyers?
135gsm gloss is the SA standard for promotional flyers — affordable, vibrant, and durable enough for handouts. For menus or items that get handled repeatedly, 170gsm or 250gsm card gives a more premium feel. For direct mail or invites, 300gsm uncoated is popular among design-led brands. If your flyer will be folded, stick to 135–170gsm — heavier stocks crack at the fold.
Should I do digital or litho printing for flyers?
Digital is better for quantities up to about 500–1,000 — no plate setup costs, faster turnaround, easy to print variations. Litho (offset) becomes more economical at 1,000+ because the per-unit cost drops significantly once plates are made. Litho also gives slightly better colour consistency on large runs. Most JHB suppliers offer both — we'll match you based on your quantity and turnaround needs.
Can JHB printers help with flyer design too?
Yes, most JHB print suppliers offer design as a separate service, charged at R350–R1,500+ depending on complexity. If you need design as well as print, mention it upfront — suppliers who offer design will quote both costs separately. If you have artwork ready, supply it as a print-ready PDF (CMYK colour mode, 3mm bleed, fonts outlined or embedded) for best results.
