iAdvisory Seminar: Halal Industry Opportunities in Malaysia

The global halal market is estimated at US$2.3 trillion covering both food and non-food sectors. It is expected that the sector would be worth some US$6.4 trillion in 2018, with the increasing Muslim population, estimated to grow to 8.2 billion in 2030 from 1.8 billion currently.
 
Malaysia is looking to expand its halal market to the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) countries including Australia and New Zealand, where the Muslim population is growing.

The halal industry is an important agenda for the Malaysian government in its 11th Malaysia Plan, and the Halal Industry Development Corporation (HDC) is recognised as an important focal point to develop Malaysian halal business.

Find out more about the halal manufacturing opportunities in Malaysia and hear it first hand from representative from the Halal Industry Development Corporation (HDC), MIDA, MATRADE and JAKIM.
