History
Our philosophy at Rimal Publications is to continue to make our mark through books which are inspired by individuality and fueled by the need to build bridges between cultures.
Our StoryRimal Publications, an independent publishing house, established by Nora Shawwa in Nicosia, Cyprus in 1993, specializes in history, art, culture, travel and children books.
The initial emphasis of the publisher was on children's books, with the aim of encouraging young readers in the Arab world. Rimal published the first comprehensive full-colour illustrated Arabic/Arabic Dictionary for Children in the elementary and intermediate levels, an achievement hailed in educational circles.
Over the years, Rimal has come to be recognized for publishing books in both the English and Arabic languages that introduce readers to the unique cultural richness of the Middle East and the countries of the Eastern Mediterranean.
The focus on encouraging reading among children remains one of Rimal's objectives. Rimal Publications has established the Rimal Children's Book Award to champion new and emerging talent in children's books writing.
Rimal's underlying objective is to build bridges between cultures and enlighten the world at large about the rich history, culture and traditions of this part of the world. Quality is Rimal's trademark, and the foundation of the reputation it enjoys as an independent publishing house.
Through our select partnerships, Rimal Publications reaches a worldwide audience through focused distribution, special events and launches, direct online marketing campaigns, as well as books sold through traditional means including bookstores and major online outlets.
