A Glimpse into The Global Halal Industry 2024

The Halal industry is much more than just food on your plate. It’s a way of life that encompasses the entire ecosystem, from food production to consumerism. The Halal industry is a booming global market. The global Islamic economy comprises seven sectors — Islamic finance, Halal food, modest fashion, media and recreation, Muslim-friendly travel, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics.

It is estimated that the global Halal market will be increased by trillions in 2027, making it one of the fastest-growing industries in the world today. Recent years have seen a surge in global awareness of sustainability, ethical consumption, green growth, and digitization, enabling the Halal industry to flourish worldwide.

Halal Term

The word ‘Halal’ comes from Arabic which means “allowed” or “permissible” according to Islamic law. Therefore, every Muslim must ensure that whatever they consume comes from a Halal source—not just the ingredients but also the entire production and handling process from start to finish (Zakaria, 2008).

The definition given by Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) in Trade Description Order 2011 covers products and services encompassing all the business operations like packaging, marketing, manufacturing, logistics, supply, maintaining premises, slaughtering, and so on (JAKIM, 2015).

$2.3 Trillion Halal Consumer Market Plays a Significant Role in the US Economy

The tenth edition of the report (2023/24) presents an annual update on the halal ethical economy – encompassing halal products, Islamic finance, and lifestyle sectors being driven by the 2 billion Muslim consumers extending to include a wider global ethical consumer market. This year’s SGIE report indicates that Muslims spent US$2.29 trillion in 2022 on food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, modest fashion, travel, and media. Islamic finance assets are estimated to have reached US$3.96 trillion in 2021/22 and will grow to US$5.94 trillion by 2025/26.

The report’s national benchmarking Global Islamic Economy Indicator (GIEI) of 81 countries ranked the US 26th overall. The US ranked 27th in Halal Food, 11th in Islamic-themed media and recreation, and 15th in modest fashion. Malaysia retained the top spot for the 10th consecutive year, followed by Saudi Arabia, Indonesia and the UAE.

Import of halal-related products by the OIC member (Muslim majority) countries was US$359 billion in 2022 and is set to grow at 7.6% CAGR to reach US$492 billion by 2027. The US exported $20.8 billion worth of halal products to the OIC in 2022 ranking 4th globally. The top halal products export destination markets were Indonesia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Malaysia.

Investments in halal economy-relevant companies increased significantly, reaching $25.9 billion in 2022/23, representing a 128% year-on-year growth. The US ranks #8 with a growth of 17% in 2022/23 compared to the prior year.
