Fuente del Jarro is located within the municipality of Paterna, City of Business, 10 km. northwest of Valencia, connected mainly by a highway. It also has a connection to the capital by the Paterna-Lliria road. It has direct entry and exit to the bypass (A-7) that surrounds it, which facilitates communication with Madrid, Alicante, the airport, the port and Feria Valencia.

Studies estimate that 45,000 vehicles of different type and tonnage enter and leave the Industrial Estate each day.

It is a fairly diversified industrial area, with very varied industrial activities. Nearly all sectors are represented in greater or lesser proportions:
