Rondonópolis is a Brazilian municipality in the state of Mato Grosso, located in the southeast of the state, 210 km from the capital, Cuiabá. It is the most populous city in the interior of the state, with 263,708 inhabitants, according to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) estimate for 2025.
Rondonópolis has the second largest gross domestic product (GDP) in the state of Mato Grosso. It is strategically located at the junction of Highways BR-163 and BR-364 and is the link between the north and south of the country. Along these routes all the agricultural and industrial production is transported to the large metropolitan centres and ports of Brazil.
With its important geographical location, the city sees industrialisation as a new leap in its growth. Today, the diversification of industrial segments has earned the municipality important titles: the largest soybean crushing, refining and bottling hub in Brazil, the largest fertiliser blending hub in the Brazilian interior, the largest state production of animal feed and supplements, and meatpacking plants meeting international standards; and it is preparing to become one of the main textile hubs of the Centre-West, through the encouragement and investment in the weaving and garment industry. More recently, Rondonópolis has begun to receive investment in the metallurgy sector.
