Bhadohi is internationally known for its handmade carpet industry. The carpets are made in the entire area known as Bhadohi-Mirzapur belt but Bhadohi is a hub of all activity perhaps because of its strategic location. Both, Varanasi also known as holy city of India and Lal Bahadur Shastri Airport is located nearly 45 km east of Bhadohi. Besides, Varanasi provides some of the best national and international hotels where overseas buyer stay comfortably. Varanasi is also attractive for its silk saris and city of temples where buyers like to experience the spiritual sermons.

In 1790, during Mughal Emperor's time, some carpet weavers happen to pass through G T Road, about 15 km south of Bhadohi. For some unavoidable circumstances, they decided to settle in a village called Ghosian. The descendants of that tribe is still living here, many of them are still in the same trade.

There is some uniqueness found in the carpetwalls of Bhadohi rarely found in other industries. They have a tendency to adapt very quickly to any innovation that come their way. In the beginning, it was only French Aubussion knotted rugs for a long, long time. Next German came with Hamadan, a Persian design. To which people got accustomed fast. During 60s and 70s, almost everyone was manufacturing these rugs because demand of these rugs surpassed supply.

Later came the technique of Tibetan weave, Hand tufted, Punja Dhurry (flat weave), Shaggy, Handloom, shuttle weave etc and all were adapted fast. they got accustomed not only with quality but also came up new innovation in weave and designs.
