The Barkan Industrial Park (Template:Lang-he, lit. Barkan Industrial Area) is located about 25 kilometres east of Tel Aviv on the Israeli-occupied West Bank whose offices are located at the northern entrance. The industrial park is located adjacent to the Israeli settlement Barkan and near the settlement and city of Ariel.
Founded in 1982, the industrial park currently includes about 120 businesses and factories manufacturing plastics, metal-work, food, textile, and more.
At Barkan Industrial Park, thousands of Israelis and Palestinians coexist and work side by side in many of the factories. Palestinian workers can earn as much as 4 times the monthly average salary in the Palestinian Authority. Factory owners there say that calls to boycott some factories endanger employment for many Palestinians.
