Mulberry is the Phosphate Capital of the World and Mosic and CF Industries are modernizing their operations through new technologies making fertilizer production a viable business for decades to come.
One of the South’s largest family-owned businesses, Badcock & More, has been headquartered in Mulberry since 1904 and numerous other companies operate in the City’s rail-served industrial park and throughout the community.
Mulberry has been called “The Crossroads of Florida” due to its central location in the state and the Florida Department of Transportation reports that vehicles pass daily through the intersection of State Roads 60 and 37 at the doorstep of City Hall.
