Jaú, Municipality in central São Paulo state, Brazil
Located on the Jaú River, the city spans 687 square kilometers at an elevation of 522 meters above sea level in fertile agricultural lands.
The settlement originated in 1853 when pioneers established a village, which gained town status in 1889 and developed into a regional agricultural center.
The municipality houses the Esporte Clube XV de Novembro, founded in 1924, with matches played at Estádio Zezinho Magalhães stadium.
The city functions as a manufacturing center for shoes, with production facilities exporting footwear to international markets through established transportation networks.
