The Saudi Authority for Industrial Cities and Technology Zones (MODON) has signed a cooperation agreement with the Heritage Commission to integrate the crafts sector with the industrial ecosystem and economically empower artisans.
The agreement aims to foster the development of high-quality craft products that hold significant market value. It seeks to bridge the gap between artisans and the resources offered by industrial cities, enabling access to advanced products and services that can enhance their craftsmanship.
Additionally, the initiative supports artisans’ participation in exhibitions and events, providing them with valuable exposure. By doing so, the agreement strives to transform traditional crafts into sustainable and commercially viable products, ensuring their continued relevance in the modern market.
The agreement also aims to enhance artisans’ capabilities by offering access to quality services and investment opportunities that will help sustain traditional craft practices.
Furthermore, it includes the provision of industrial land and ready-made units, enabling artisans to establish their operations and produce their crafts more efficiently. This support is designed to ensure the long-term growth and success of artisan-led businesses, allowing them to thrive in a modern industrial environment.
