doi: 10.12957/geouerj.2016.12665 This article aims to analyze the national geographic network of Indústria Missiato de Bebidas Ltda. For this matter, It was accomplished literature review, particularly through the studies of Roberto L. Corrêa, Milton Santos and Tânia M. Fresca, research on websites and digital newspapers, as contact by phone, email and draft letter to this industry, aiming to get information relevant to the research. Then it was followed with analysis, interpretation and problematization of collected materials, what led to greater clarity and has made possible the production of this work. Known for the alcoholic drink "Jamel", today the industry has its activity in all states of Brazil and abroad, distributing a wide range of alcoholic beverages. However, it has spatial interaction pattern at network of dendritic type, an arrangement of origin from colonial period, according to Corrêa (2010, 2011), but it shows effective to the industry's needs, particularly about logistics, such as production and reproduction of capital, projecting it as one of the leading producers in its branch in the country. The industry still leads the proximity factor as paramount in its dynamic and doesn't show multi-directions spatial interactions, which is standard feature of pattern of multiple circuits.
