Being in the middle of Central Florida, supplier of one third of the world's phosphate, has earned Mulberry the title of "Phosphate Mining Capital of the World." Because of its plentiful supply of phosphate, phosphate mining has always been a huge industry in Mulberry. The largest phosphate company that operates in Mulberry is Mosaic.

Tampa Electric Company (TECO) is another large company with important operations near Mulberry. Their Polk Power Station, 13 miles south of Mulberry, is one of the most technologically advanced power plants in the country.

For a small town, Mulberry is home to many large, important companies.
