Abstract

El artículo se refiere a la producción de mueble de madera tapizado y solido, que realizan los pequeños productores de muebles del municipio de San Juan Sacatepéquez, en Guatemala. Se parte del desarrollo teórico-metodológico del enfoque de Cadenas Globales de Mercancías –CGM- que se da al trabajo, con la salvedad de que los productores sujetos de análisis operan sólo a nivel del mercado nacional. En las dimensiones que integran el enfoque, se abordan aspectos relacionados con el insumo producto, para ver la procedencia de las materias primas y su proceso de transformación. Destaca el proceso de la producción en los talleres y las relaciones que se establecen con otros agentes en el aprovisionamiento de las materias primas y las fuentes de financiamiento. La comercialización de los muebles saca a la luz las condiciones en que actúan. El papel de la organización de pequeños productores de muebles abre nuevas expectativas en la producción y la comercialización. La ubicación geográfica del municipio genera ventajas comparativas, en materia de disposición de la materia prima y la cercanía a la capital para mercadear los productos. Se aborda aspectos institucionales públicos y privados en diferentes etapas como el diseño y la comercialización. Finalmente, se presentan conclusiones sobre los aspectos más relevantes.
