Catalão, city, southeastern Goiás estado (state), south-central Brazil. Situated in rolling uplands near the Paranaíba River, Catalão is a small commercial and manufacturing centre. Cattle and hogs raised in the region supply the city’s tanneries and meat-processing plants, which produce xarque (jerked beef), lard, and sausages. Dairying and distilling are also important. Additional income is derived from nearby deposits of iron and manganese. Rice, coffee, alcohol, and cotton are shipped from the city, which has important rail and highway links. Pop. (2010) 86,597.
