The instruments used to collect data were: semistructured survey observational visits and informal discussions with cabinetmaking owners and cabinetmakers. The cabinetmaking productivity was analyzed from operational processes, human resources and economic and financial indicators. From an economic and financial point of view the cabinetmaker's workshops productivity was profitable; the cost-benefit ratio was greater than 1. Evaluated indicators show that operational processes are carried out according to each cabinetmaking's plan; human resource has the skills to perform this kind of work. The investigation allows to conclude that the sector of furniture manufacture has development potential and factors that are in its favor to improve the levels of productivity obtained, and thus could be competitive on the regional and national market.
