Abstract: This study sought to identify and analyze the evolution of Local Productive Arrangements (LPAs) in the sectors of extractive and manufacturing industry in the state of Paran´a, from 2006 to 2016. In the methodology, the normalized Concentration Index (nCI) and the Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA), which consisted of the application of two statistical tests, the Global Moran’s I and the Local Moran’s I. With this methodological procedure it was possible to identify 57 industrial LPAs in the state of Paran´a in 23 economic sectors, with its greatest incidence in the Metropolitan Region of Curitiba and North Central. We conclude that there is a consolidation process with positive evolution of LPAs in the analyzed period, where the regions of Londrina and Curitiba and its surroundings stand out, as well as the activities of food and beverage production; textiles and clothing; wood and furniture; and the production of machinery, equipment, rubber, and plastics.
