Objetive:

To analyze the organizational characteristics and mechanisms of operation of family workshops of denim production in the town of San Mateo Ayecac (Tlaxcala).

Methodology:

Was based on a territorial diagnosis of the family production units. One hundred and twenty questionnaires, randomly selected, were applied and semi-structured interviews were conducted with key informants from the spring of 2018 to the summer of 2019.

Results:

Show three productive models differentiated by the type of management that each one of them carries out; they also demonstrate the existence of a combination of multifunctional and specialized work that supports three productive models.

Limitations:

Was the lack of knowledge about the total number of workshops in a formal way. This is largely due to the informal entrepreneurial process developed in the locality and the distrust of informants.

Conclusions:

Point out that the productive prototypes studied are framed in global production networks that support local self-management processes of entrepreneurship contributed by technical and technological management and as an endogenous learning process of the labour force.
