A festival takes place each year during the olive harvest season in November or December. It is also an important industrial center for textiles and manufacturing; the manufacturing industry employs about half of Jemmal's active population. An industrial zone was established in 2005 on 7.5 hectares (.03 sq. miles), along the road that connects Jemmal to the town of Moknine.{{cite web |title=" Populations, logements et ménages par unités administratives et milieux " |url=http://census.ins.tn/sites/default/files/vol%201%20rgph%202014%20site%20%281%29.pdf |language=fr |website=census.ins.tn |access-date=11 January 2020 |archive-date=28 January 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180128184626/http://census.ins.tn/sites/default/files/vol%201%20rgph%202014%20site%20%281%29.pdf |url-status=dead }}
