About Us

Welcome to The Barakat Official (TBO). A Clothing Brand made In Palestine. By Palestinians. For Freedom Fighters. We are a family-owned business, founded by the Barakat family with a deep connections to their heritage and a passion for supporting Palestine.

Our Story

TBO began in 2020 in Cleveland, Ohio, with a simple but powerful vision: to create a platform for Palestinians through clothing, accessories, and art. What started as a line of T-shirts, hoodies, and accessories soon became a mission for two brothers who wanted to raise awareness about the oppression happening in Palestine and support local Palestinian artists. Our brand was originally set to launch through festivals across the U.S., but when COVID-19 hit, we had to adapt and shift our focus online.

Though the challenges were unexpected, our journey has only just begun. TBO has grown from a small idea into a local brand with a global message, and we're more committed than ever to honoring our Palestinian roots and supporting our community.

What We Do

At TBO, we specialize in Palestinian accessories, including hand-stitched art, bracelets, keychains, scarves, prayer beads, key holdersfragrances and hoodies — each product uniquely crafted by skilled artisans in Palestine. Our hand-stitched art, created by none other than Mom Barakat, is a symbol of love, tradition, and resilience. Every piece tells a story, representing the heart of Palestinian craftsmanship and culture.

We are proud to source our products from local "mom and pop" shops in the West Bank, ensuring that our work directly supports Palestinian artists and small businesses. By purchasing from these shops, we are helping to preserve traditional crafts while also contributing to the economic empowerment of Palestinian communities.

Our Mission

TBO is not just about products – it’s about raising awareness and standing in solidarity with Palestine. We believe that awareness is the first step to a Free Palestine, and through our accessories and art, we aim to spark conversations, foster understanding, and support a cause that is dear to our hearts.

By wearing and sharing our products, you are not only celebrating Palestinian culture, but you are also joining a global movement for justice and freedom. Every bracelet, scarf, and keychain represents a step toward amplifying the voices of those who continue to face oppression.

Join Our Journey

TBO is more than just a brand – it's a movement. We invite you to follow our story and become part of our growing community. Through our online platform and social media channels, we share updates, stories, and inspiration that keep the spirit of Palestine alive.

Thank you for supporting TBO. Together, we are spreading awareness, creating change, and making our voices heard.

With love and gratitude,
The TBO Team
