About Barakah
Barakah is a Saudi marketplace for surplus food. Restaurants, cafés and bakeries list their end-of-day surplus at a discount, and customers pick it up through the Barakah app — good food gets eaten, merchants earn from what would have gone to waste, and everyone gets a little more Barakah. Headquartered in Jeddah, operating across Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
