Company
Artistic and Literary Promotions Artex S.A, founded on April 1, 1989, has since its origins a very well-achieved mission: “to create, market and promote cultural goods and services that distinguish it in the market, for its value in satisfying the needs of clients and contribute to financing the cultural development of the country.”
Even though we are young and have a group full of fresh minds, who bring the most current imprint of new technologies, we have founding workers who have remained throughout these 35 years and have guided the bizoños; to bring Cuban culture to all corners of the earth.
Cultural tourism, events, concerts and live performances stand out. It organizes and carries out national and international tours that, with these functions, allow the essence of national culture to reach directly and in all its manifestations.
It markets discography, literature, phonographic and publishing rights, as well as academic services in the different expressions of art.
The positioning of online commerce, the Sandunga platform for downloading and streaming national music and Mall Cubano, have been consolidating the image of the Company as an exporter of products and services.
All this and much more has led Artex.SA to be considered “The locomotive of Cuban culture.”
Born in the 20th century, it has reached the 21st century, with freshness and maturity. It has adapted to new market forms, transforms and renews itself daily as a State Company, dedicated to promoting the essence of National Culture, its values and cultivators around the world.
Will and Achievements of Artex in 2024
In 2024, Artex workers and artists stood out for their will, humanism, sense of responsibility and belonging to Cuban culture. Optimism was the true strength.
The commemorative campaign for the company’s anniversary was developed throughout the country with a varied program. The main objectives were to strengthen the Artistic and Literary Promotions brand, holding concerts, fairs, album presentations, audiovisuals and books. There were also contests on networks and recognition of workers, artists and institutions that contributed to the achievements in these 35 years.
Artex participated in national and international trade fairs and signed agreements with small and medium-sized companies. Concerts in important plazas, such as the Salsa Festival and the Festival of New Latin American Cinema, were notable events, with the participation of well-known groups.
The cultural guerrillas managed to revitalize culture in vulnerable communities and contribute to the national program for the advancement of women, as well as the fight against violence against women and girls.
The commitment of workers and artists in this 35th anniversary has been crucial to maintain their promotion and commercialization of cultural products without compromising values, identity and national prestige.
