Mehsi is widely recognised for its litchi orchards, fruit trade and historic pearl button industry. The town forms part of Bihar's litchi-producing belt, a product recognised under the Government of India's One District One Product (ODOP) initiative for East Champaran. The East Champaran district administration describes the Mehsi pearl button industry as a unique traditional industry that has provided employment to thousands of people and contributed significantly to the local economy.
Owing to its strategic location between Muzaffarpur, Sheohar and northern East Champaran, Mehsi has developed as an important urban, market and service centre for the surrounding region.
