Muslims constitute 23% of the global population. In today’s globalized world, Muslim consumers’ expectations of halal food, halal finance, and overall halal system are most important factors that lead to the growth of the halal market. The global halal market has emerged as a new growth sector in the global economy and is creating a strong presence in developed countries and Muslim world and the halal industry has now expanded well beyond the food sector further widening the economic potentials for halal. Therefore, from corporate identity to corporate culture, spatial design to marketing policies, marketing tools and media the companies in the halal market segment give particular importance to religious indicators and sensitivity. The world community has now begun to understand the importance of the Muslims requirement for food and other consumption known as halal.
