Halal Products Market – Global Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook and Opportunity Analysis, 2018-2026

The recent past has witnessed a rampant rise in demand for halal-certified products. This is mainly attributed to rampant growth in demand from end-use industries such as meat, beverages, and processed food. The halal products market is also diversifying from food segment to healthcare, pharmaceutical, toiletries, and other personal care products.

The growth of Muslim population is the major driving factor of this market. Moreover, the rising development in the East and South East Asian countries has led to the increase in purchasing power among the population, further, augmenting the growth of Halal products market. The improvement in the supply chain in the retail sector is adding to the demand for Halal food products thereby adding to the growth of the halal products. Further, multilateral trade agreements and rise in consumption of halal products by other communities has boosted the flow of halal products in the global market.. However, the major restraint of halal products is the absence of standards of halal products globally and the companies operating in this field are required to seek certification from each country separately.
