Main Business OF Jalgaon

Jalgaon district produces more than 16% of India's bananas and thus 3% of world banana production happens in Jalgaon. Jalgaon thus produces more bananas than most of the countries of the world. According to Mahabanana, an association of banana growers of Maharashtra, 66% of Maharashtra's land under banana crop is in Jalgaon.
Jalgaon is also one of world's the largest pulse (beans/daals) milling centers. It has some of the nation's best jewellery makers and is a leading cotton producing region. It is a well developed, highly industrialised city and is growing at a blistering pace due to the presence of highly skilled workforce, great infrastructure, and transportation access being on the NH-6 between east and west India and also the railway Junction of Bhusaval.
From the year 2008-09, the state government has proposed to abolish Octroi Duty on the goods being transported through the city. Also Jalgaon airport would get support from the state government for the redevelopment for commercial operations.
Jalgaon is often known as the Banana Capital of India but has much more to offer. Upon entering Jalgaon city through the railway station, the first building that visitors see is the 17-floor Jalgaon Municipal Corporation. Adjoining this is the Golani complex with more than 500 shops and flats. Crossing Mahatma Gandhi road towards the Shastri tower visitors will find Phule market, well known as a retail market for clothing, cosmetics, and almost all consumable items. Further along is another one of Jalgaon's important markets known as Dana Bazaar, a wholesale market for food grains. Next to it, after crossing Subhash chowk, visitors enter the market of Jewellery (Sarafa bazaar). Jalgaon is one of biggest Jewellery markets in Maharashtra and famous for its Gold quality and designs. Beside the Jewellery market, is the construction, Hardware and Paints market (Bohri gully).
