Abstract

The present article discusses the performance of the textile-clothing
sector in Paraná and its specialized regional segments between 2000 and 2004.
The study seeks to characterize the productive specialization and identify the
existing stages of the textile-clothing chain in the State specialized regions. The
article analyzes the changes in the sector structure and the elements composing
the Local Productive Arrangements. The results show that the importance of the
Paraná textile group has decreased after the cotton culture crisis in 1990, except
for silk production that still resists despite little improvement. The clothing group
has improved greatly, mainly concerning the so called “Fashion Corridor” in the
north/northwest side of the State where we can find the most important jeans
and cap producers in Brazil.
