Resumen:
This paper is an approach about local development in the city of Solânea / PB, taking the
service production at Eastern Curimataú as the central point of this development and focusing
on commercial branch. Methodology adopted was the bibliographic and the documentary one,
focusing on authors such as: Christaller, Andrade Santos, among others. Documental research
was carried out from State and Municipal Development Institute –IDEME (Instituto de
Desenvolvimento Municipal e Estadual). It was identified that development, especially trade,
had wide influence of federal regional policy, which expanded the poorest people`s income
power, encouraging consumer demand, by increasing the amount of several shopping venues
such as shops, supermarkets, banks, among others. However, typical Northeastern region
problems are still felt present by population`s everyday life.
