According to the data report analysis of the Global Business Strategy Council, the consumption of Halal-certified products in 2012 was US$1.6 trillion, and after 2023 the global sales of Halal-certified products will double. With the surge in global sales of Halal-certified products and China's inherent geographical advantages, more and more Chinese enterprises choose Halal certification to enhance their competitive advantage and expand their market share.

Factors promoting the Halal market

* Halal trade market access requirements, such as Indonesia's stipulation that food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics entering its market must be recognized by approved Halal certification.

* Intensifying global trade competition; Halal-certified products can gain a competitive advantage in the global market

* A huge Halal consumer market, reaching about 1.9 billion Halal consumers worldwide

* The spending power of the Halal consumer group continues to increase. And Halal certification has a small investment cost with huge potential returns.

* Developing Halal certification standards/guidelines is a commitment to consumers demonstrating their quality

Thanks to the establishment of the ASEAN Free Trade Area and the implementation of China's 'Belt and Road' economic development initiative in 2013, China's economic and trade with ASEAN member states and countries along the Belt and Road has grown year by year. The Halal certification market has ridden on the excellent trade environment of these two economies, and the two major economies have run side by side to jointly promote the steady growth of China's Halal product export trade over the past decade and occupy an important core economic position in the global Halal product market.

As the world's hottest economy, China's Halal product sales market will continue to grow exponentially in the future. When many enterprises see their peers scrambling to choose Halal certification to seize global Halal market share, there is no reason to hesitate any longer.
