Cuban company involved in the promotion and distribution of artistic works


Artex S.A. is a Cuban company involved in the promotion and distribution of artistic works.[1] Its main divisions are the record label Bis Music, the book publisher Ediciones Cubanas and Comercial Lauros, which commercializes artisanal products. Artex was founded in 1989 as Promociones Artísticas y Literarias and it soon became Cuba's largest chain of record outlets.[2] Previously, the Cuban music industry had been entirely managed by the state-owned EGREM since 1964. Similarly, Artex manages the biggest bookstores in the country.[3]
