In this investigation, the methods of analysis and descriptive were used, as well as interviews and surveys techniques that allowed the collection of information. The main results of this study reveal that there is a lack of knowledge about the economic incidences of the gastronomic sector of Jaramijó, both among the population, owners of the establishments and the chamber of tourism.
