Saudi Arabia’s Tourism Development Fund has unveiled new investment accelerators aimed at supporting the handicraft sector,
as part of a broader effort to empower local artisans and sustain the Kingdom’s cultural heritage industries.
The initiative targets small and medium enterprises specializing in traditional crafts, offering business acceleration programs,
advisory services, and funding solutions to help scale operations and improve product quality.

Handicrafts are a key element of Saudi Arabia’s cultural identity, and this move aligns with Vision 2030 goals to strengthen the creative economy and promote heritage-driven industries.
The fund emphasized that the program will help attract local and international investment, generate employment opportunities,
and position Saudi-made artisanal products as competitive offerings in both local and global markets.
