Araçatuba, Agricultural center in São Paulo state, Brazil

Araçatuba extends across 1,167 square kilometers of land in western São Paulo state, positioned near the Tietê River at 384 meters elevation.

The settlement emerged in 1908 during railway construction, receiving municipal status in 1921 when it separated administratively from Penápolis.

The name originates from indigenous Tupi language, referring to the abundance of araçá fruit trees that grew in the region.

The municipality connects to São Paulo city through multiple transportation routes, including highways, waterways, and an operational airfield for cargo distribution.

The local economy processes cotton, manufactures furniture, produces tannin, creates ceramics, and generates hydroelectric power from the Tietê River.
