Barron Trump, the youngest member of the Trump family, has embarked on his own business venture, reflecting the family’s longstanding entrepreneurial spirit. As his father, Donald Trump, resumes his role as President, recent business filings reveal that Barron took initial steps into the real estate sector last year.
At the age of 18, Barron established a real estate company in July 2024, coinciding with the launch of a previously unreported firm by his older brother, Eric Trump. However, Barron’s enterprise was short-lived. The company, named Trump, Fulcher & Roxburgh Capital Inc., was founded on July 15, 2024, but was dissolved shortly after Donald Trump’s election victory on November 14.
Cameron Roxburgh, Barron’s business partner and a fellow graduate of the prestigious Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach, explained to Newsweek that the dissolution was a strategic decision to reduce media attention during the election campaign. The firm, which focuses on high-end real estate developments and golf courses in Utah, Arizona, and Idaho, is expected to relaunch in the spring. Roxburgh noted that while President Trump has not made any financial investments in the business, he has offered private counsel and is supportive of the initiative. Although there is potential interest in positioning the company as a subsidiary of the Trump Organization, no formal arrangements have been established at this time.
When approached for a comment, Roxburgh, who attended high school with Barron, stated to The New York Post, “We are working out logistics,” and indicated that they “might relaunch” in the spring.
Eric Trump, who has played a significant role within the Trump Organization, has refrained from publicly addressing his younger brother’s recent business initiative while simultaneously pursuing his own entrepreneurial endeavors.
Barron Trump, in contrast to his siblings, has largely stayed out of the public spotlight, but his entry into the business realm marks a notable development. Although he has frequently accompanied his father at important campaign events, he has not yet articulated any public ambitions regarding his professional future.
The Trump family’s business activities have consistently drawn scrutiny, and with Donald Trump’s return to the presidency, inquiries about possible conflicts of interest are likely to emerge. Nevertheless, those familiar with the family assert that Barron’s brief venture into business is entirely distinct from his father’s political activities.
Born in 2006, Barron is the youngest son of President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump, standing at an impressive height of 6 feet 9 inches, making him the tallest member of the family. He is currently a freshman at the Stern School of Business at New York University.
During President Trump’s 2024 campaign, Barron played a vital role in advising on media strategies and outreach, notably recommending that his father participate in popular podcasts hosted by figures such as Joe Rogan and Theo Von, which significantly broadened the campaign’s appeal to younger voters.
Despite his prominent upbringing, Barron has largely steered clear of political exposure, prioritizing his education instead. He shares a close bond with his mother, Melania, who has consistently safeguarded his privacy throughout the years.
On Monday, during his father’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States, Barron garnered considerable public attention.
