Abstract

This article analyzes the technical and productive conditions of shoe productive arrangement in São João Batista/SC. This productive arrangement is the most valuable in the State of Santa Catarina, and the seventh most important in Brazil – the third largest shoe manufacturer, and the fifth shoe exporter. In order to evaluate such conditions, a field research was performed in factory companies and examined the prevailing technical and productive dynamics, as well as characteristics of company, product, technology and organization levels, labor conditions, and influence of third-party production. The research demonstrates how companies have invested in modernizing their productive structure, in order to make them more competitive - though important manufacture flaws have been noticed in the application of production techniques and technical training. Development policies are suggested in order to solve pending issues and improve competitive conditions.
