The idea and concept for the World Halal Forum was born from our direct involvement and interaction with the players in the Halal Market arena. In 2004, it became increasingly clear that the stakeholders in the Halal market – the producers, processors, manufacturers, logistics providers, retailers, restaurants, food service providers and others, actually constitute a new kind of industry in their own right; a diverse, complex, yet integrated industry with a global reach that crosses geographic, cultural and even religious boundaries.
