This review is done for elaborating social and economic importance of honey bees. Honey bees are imperative natural source of many products including Honey, wax, and Royal jelly. Beside this their role in ecosystem is very astonishing including pollination service that is very obligate for our food production as well as earning from agriculture sector. Beekeepers manage the honey bees either for bee products or for pollination but principally their main endeavor is earning. Apiculture can generate enormous revenue for developing countries especially for rural population in present financial crisis.
