About Us

A Store Built on Blessing

"Baraka" means blessing — and that is exactly what we aim to share. Opened in 2026, Baraka Kauppa is a family-run international mini market in Kouvola, founded to bring the flavours of the world to our community.

Our shelves are stocked with carefully sourced groceries from South Asia, East and Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa. From fragrant basmati rice and hand-picked spices to halal meats, fresh produce and pantry staples, we bring the ingredients that make home cooking authentic.

We believe a lively city needs diverse local services. By shopping with us, you support a local entrepreneur — and you always get a warm welcome, in English, Finnish, Arabic or Somali.

"If we want a lively city centre and diverse services in Kouvola, we need to use them. Support local entrepreneurs."
