In the 1990s, the City of João Pessoa begins construction of "Popular Shopping" Dorgival Third Neto, better known as the "Terceirão."

The methodology used in the research relied on theoretical methodological approach critical dialectic. The results obtained in the study indicate that although the employee has been removed from the streets and organized a public space, it remains helpless and unprotected. It was concluded in this study that the transfer of street workers to popular malls, has conferred an appearance of formality, but seen beyond appearance, the problem of informality remains. However, one realizes the importance of their work within the popular shopping malls to increase the income and quality of life of informal workers and even these being unprotected legally, contribute undeniably for Regional Development.
