Halal Food Market By Product Type (Meat and Poultry, Dairy Products, Fish and Seafood, Cereals and Confectionery, Others), By Distribution Channel (Traditional Retailers, Supermarkets and Hypermarkets, Online, Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023-2032
The global halal food market size was valued at $2,329 million in 2022, and is projected to reach $7,450.9 million by 2032, registering a CAGR of 12.41%.
Halal, an Arabic word meaning permissible in English, refers to something that is allowed to be used or an activity that is approved under Islamic law. The words halal and haram, which both imply forbidden or prohibited by Islamic law, are contrasted throughout the Koran. For some items to be classified as halal, they need to be certified by an authorized body that meets certain content and/or procedure standards.
Over the past few decades, the American halal business has grown significantly, and this growth is expected to continue in the future. Americans who were raised in other religions are now switching to Islam because society in the US has grown more tolerant of viewpoints that diverge from their own. There will be more halal items available in American grocery shops as the Muslim population in the country grows. This will also result in more eateries applying for halal certification so they may provide their patrons with halal food. These businesses will receive strong support from the Islamic community because there aren't many American retailers and eateries offering halal food. If they are successful, other retailers and eateries will follow suit.
The popularity of halal food and goods is rising quickly both in the US and globally. The halal consumer community needs to be able to buy products for their daily lives, including halal beauty products and halal meat. After businesses become certified in halal practices or start stocking halal goods, the Islamic community can start buying products tailored to their needs. The Islamic community will have more shopping options as more businesses will sell halal goods and restaurants will provide halal cuisine. This is because some companies will produce goods that are specially tailored to the religious practices of the Islamic community. People will see the benefits of a growing halal business and the beneficial economic effects it will have on the world economy once they are informed about the truth about halal products.
The increasing popularity of halal cuisine is a testament to the rich diversity of Middle Eastern culinary traditions, resonating with the evolving gastronomic preferences of consumers worldwide. The aromatic allure of halal food has permeated both quaint rural areas and bustling metropolises, transcending mere sustenance to become a lifestyle choice that harmonizes tradition with contemporary living.
Religious considerations, notably for Islamic dietary laws, emerge as a prominent factor driving the growing demand for halal food. This culinary choice has found favor across various religions, reflecting a diverse array of motivations. The multifaceted nature of halal menus mirrors the complexity of reasons behind its burgeoning popularity.
Quality is a pivotal driver in the escalating demand for halal cuisine. The certification as halal often entails adherence to rigorous quality control protocols, ensuring that the food meets the highest standards of safety, hygiene, and overall excellence. Ethical considerations, such as humane treatment of animals and ethical sourcing, further contribute to the appeal of halal cuisine among conscientious consumers.
On a global scale, nations are adapting their economic policies to accommodate consumer preferences and instill confidence in halal products. A notable example is Indonesia, home to the world's largest Muslim population (207 million people), which enacted the Halal Product Law in 2019. This legislation mandates halal certification for all consumer items and related services traded within the country. While certain items considered haram, such as alcohol, pig or hog byproducts, blood, and non-halal meat, are permitted under the law, they are subject to specific regulations to ensure compliance with Islamic principles. This regulatory shift reflects the broader global trend of aligning economic policies with the growing demand for halal products.
The introduction of mandatory halal certification laws in Indonesia has resulted in an increased level of government control and oversight over the country's production and trade. This regulatory measure aims to bolster consumer confidence and streamline the halal logistics system. Notably, an integrated halal product codification and trade data system is slated to become operational by the end of 2021. This system is designed to enhance consumer trust by optimizing halal logistics processes and improving traceability throughout the supply chain.
In a similar vein, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia expanded the scope of its mandatory halal certification requirements in 2019. The extension included imported dairy products, oils and fats, confections, chilled and frozen meals, as well as items with a prolonged shelf life. This broader application of halal certification reflects the Saudi government's commitment to ensuring the halal integrity of a diverse range of products entering the market. Such measures contribute to the standardization of halal practices and reinforce the significance of halal certification in international trade.
