Economy Traditionally Agriculture and Fishing were the economic activities of people. The coir making industry also played a vital role. Atholi was an ideal place for coir industry because of its coconut plantations and the boating route through the Korapuzha river to other parts of Malabar. Coir products like rope and carpets from Atholi were famous throughout Malabar region. During the late-1970s men from Atholi started moving to Middle East (especially Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, UAE, and Kuwait) in search of better job opportunities which even continues today.
