Manmad ( [mənmaːɖ]) is a town in Nashik district in Maharashtra, India. It is the third largest city in Nashik district, with a population of approximately 80,000. Geographically, the town lies within Nandgaon Tehsil in Nashik District. Though it has a larger area and population than most Tehsils in the district, it does not have a Tehsil office.
Manmad houses the largest grain storage warehouses in Asia, which are administered by the Food Corporation of India[2] as well as the offices of petroleum companies such as Bharat Petroleum, Hindustan Petroleum and Indian Oil. Manmad also houses a popular Sikh Gurudwara.[3] Manmad is one of the largest markets for onion producing farmers after Lasalgaon; many farmers from nearby villages sell their farm produce in Manmad to wholesale traders, who in turn sell it in Mumbai. The Central Railway Engineering workshop at Manmad,[4] which constructs and maintains railway bridges for central railways, marked 100 years of operation in December 2005. The Centralized Engineering Workshop is under the direct control of Chief Engineer, Central Railway, Mumbai. This workshop undertakes fabrication of steel structural items, including bridge girders; approximately 1160 employees work in the Engineering Workshop.[5]
Bharat Petroleum has installed a station near Manmad that collects the petroleum products from BPCL & HPCL refineries and carries them to the interior part of Maharashtra. The petroleum products are loaded in rail wagons and transported to other places.
