Ba (town)

For a long time, Ba was famous for its soccer team which caused major traffic problems.

[1] Ba is an agricultural centre, with a population consisting mainly of Indo-Fijians, which makes it a cultural attraction for tourists.

Sugar cane has long been the mainstay of the local economy, but some manufacturing projects have been established over the past fifteen years.

The town is also home to some of Fiji's wealthiest families who own some of the country's most successful business houses.

Ba was also declared to have fallen in the red zone of Cyclone Winston which made landfall on 20 February 2016 and claimed 49 lives across Fiji.
