Jute industry is an important industry for a country like India, because not only does it earn foreign exchange but also provides substantial employment opportunities in agriculture and industrial sectors. Its first modernized industrial unit was established at Reshra in West Bengal in 1855. There are at present 73 jute mills in India, out of which West Bengal has 59 mills, Bihar 3 mills, U.P 3 mills, Andhra Pradesh 4 mills and Assam, Tripura, Orissa and M.P one each.

The jute industry in the country is traditionally export oriented. India ranks No. 1 in raw jute and jute goods production and No. 2 in export of jute goods in the world.

Most of the jute mills are located in West Bengal, mainly along the banks of Hooghly River, in a narrow belt. The main factors responsible for their location in Hooghly basin are:

1. Proximity of jute producing areas
2. Inexpensive water transport
3. Supported by good network of railways, roadways and waterways to facilitate movement of raw material to the mills
4. Abundant water for processing raw jute
5. Cheap labour from adjoining areas.

The significant role played by jute in the country’s economy can be assessed from the fact that more than 4 million farm families are involved in jute farming and majority of them belong to small and marginal categories. Cultivation of jute generates employment (seasonal) of more than 10 million man days per season.
