MOC _CULINARY ARTS COMMISSION PORT FULL COLOR RGB_20250921_1325_3011
Welcome to the official website of the Literature, Publishing & Translation Commission, an entity dedicated to strengthening the presence of Saudi culture both locally and globally. Our mission is to transform literature, publishing, and translation into powerful tools for connection, creativity, and cultural exchange.

Why unite these three sectors?
Because we believe literature is a window into diverse worlds, publishing is the bridge that carries creativity to the reader, and translation is the key to dialogue and openness between cultures. The Commission was established to bring these sectors together under one cohesive ecosystem, one that nurtures cultural identity, builds global presence, empowers talent, supports the business community, and enriches audiences.

Through this platform, I invite you to explore our initiatives and program and to take part in shaping the future of these vital sectors.

About the CEO

Given the global importance of the culinary arts, the Culinary Arts Commission has been established to develop and support the sector’s practitioners and advance its components.
The Commission aims to support individuals and entities working in the culinary sector and highlight traditional Saudi dishes by documenting and promoting them. It also aims to become the reference, developer, enabler, regulator, and legislator for the sector by setting up work mechanisms, providing the necessary licenses to those interested and working in it, as well as encouraging financing and investment in projects. Additionally, the Commission supports and motivates workers to create content that reflects their interest and passion in the culinary arts. Besides, it works to classify restaurants, chefs, and dishes, along with registering and writing down Saudi dishes recipes, then publishing them locally and internationally.
From here, we open international doors to Saudi cuisine.
