Nagpur APMC was notified on dated 16th Nov 1974 under section 39A of Maharashtra Agricultural Produce Marketing (Regulation) Act 1963, and started working on dated 21st January 1975.

Before & even some years after the formation of Nagpur A.P.M.C., different markets like Grain market, Orange & Fruit market, Potato-Onion market, Chilli & Cattle market were existing at different places in Nagpur city. The founder members were of opinion that all the markets should be at one place near to the city. Having this objective in mind, the founder members requested the Nagpur Improvement Trust for allotment of a bigger land near Nagpur. Considering the aspect seriously, allotment of around 110 acres land was done in the year 1981.

After allotment of land to APMC, M/s Kirloskar Consultants, Pune were engaged for preparation of Physibility and Zonal plan report and it was produced by them in 1981-82.

After getting the physibility and Zonal plan report, the market committee approached the famous Architect of India M/s Shivdanmal Mokha, Nagpur for preparing the plan for construction of market. As the plan was ready by the architect and sanctioned by the Nagpur Improvement Trust, the market committee constructed the said Jawaharlal Nehru Market Yard by spending around 34 crore rupees during 1988 to 1992. All the submarkets existing in different parts of Nagpur city were shifted (except Itwari grain & Vegetable market) as per the govt. resolution to Kalamna Market Yard.

The development & construction made on the market yard are done from the own fund of APMC. There is not debt, subsidy or hypothecation on the committee from any bank, organization or any govt. institute and the facilities made available on the market yard are from the own source of the committee. Specially it is necessary to mention the efforts and contribution of the officers and the staff members of the APMC for making it a success.
