Halal food refers to the products that are clean and do not contain any forbidden ingredients such as pork, alcohol, and blood. Halal food ingredients must be sourced from animals that are slaughtered according to specific Islamic guidelines, ensuring that the animal is treated humanely and its blood is fully drained. Halal certification agencies assess and verify compliance with these standards to ensure that products meet the necessary criteria, providing consumers with assurance that the food aligns with their religious practices.
The growth of the global halal food ingredients market is majorly driven by rise in awareness about halal dietary practices among consumers, including non-Muslims, and surge in Muslim population. According to the estimates of World Population Review—an independent for-profit organization that provides up-to-date global population data and demographic—there are more than two billion Muslims worldwide. Moreover, increase in availability of halal products in mainstream supermarkets and online platforms and shift in consumer preference toward halal products due to perceived health benefits, such as cleaner and safer food handling practices, significantly contribute toward the market growth. Furthermore, rise in emphasis on transparency and traceability in the supply chain to build consumer trust and ensure compliance with halal standards acts as the key driving force of the market. Increase in consumer focus on ethically sourced halal ingredients that align with environmental and social responsibility further boosts the market growth. However, high costs associated with halal certification and compliance can be significant for manufacturers and suppliers hamper the growth of the global market. Moreover, lack of awareness about halal standards among non-Muslim consumers acts as a key deterrent factor of the market.
