A family legacy, half a century in the making.
From Jerusalem to Kuwait, from haberdashery to Swarovski — our journey through the craft of beauty.
I am Mr. Taj Eddin Abdul Majid Barakat, born in Jerusalem in 1947. I am introducing myself, of my well-known business as Barakat Showroom Trading Company in Kuwait, Jordan & G.C.C. countries.
My company was founded in 1970. The high prosperity of my business is the haberdashery line — fashion, accessories, school items, knitting yarns, catalogues, embroidery materials and more.
In 1980, we specialized in all kinds of school items, hobby line, painting, printed canvases, embroidery threads, a wide variety of embroidery materials, crochet books and accessories.
In the year 2000, we introduced a new and famous line called Swarovski Crystals (Crystallized). I am a partnership of this company in Kuwait. We are wholesale and retail. These crystals are made in Austria. We sell them in various collections of different shapes and colors, used for several purposes. Our services include applying crystals on ready-made garments, wedding dresses, abayas, scarves, mobiles, and home decoration.
