Halal
Food - How Do People View It?
Almost twenty years
ago, the term Halal and Haram were
not popularise used in the
terminology of world food industry. Today, it has being
tremendous
increase known as an important influential element of the industry.
Still,
there is little known how, misconception and mythical of the
significance, rules & belief and authorization guidelines of Halal product.
Regular
Muslims
perceive God permit
consumption of Halal food
as food. Non-Muslims however, comprehend Halal
food
as food taken by Muslims
that does not contain pork or lard and
alcohol. Most food producer point of view, Halal
food is
a pork free and alcoholic free food for the Muslims
that when labelled/presented as such to the market, shall
provide
enormous economic gain.
As
such, their understanding of Halal
food is, no doubt,
correct.
However, they fail to understand the true essence of what Halal
food
really is. Halal food
goes beyond the definition of 'food that is allowed in Islam
that is pork free nor alcohol free'.

The
Halal food
market today is affected by the changes in
Muslim consumers behaviour. And the Muslim consumers behaviour in turn
is highly affected by
the industry, nutritional and ingredients trends. Muslims
affect
the market by their Islam
religious
influence.
Demand and Need -
What Is The Halal Market Size ?
In
the old times, many Muslim
countries grow most of their
food requirements locally or purchase them from other Muslim
countries.
However, the population increase outpaced the food supply, and Muslim
trader
were compelled to import foods from agriculturally leading countries.
Unfortunately, most of the imported food products, especially those
from west,
failed to pass the Halal guidelines
of Islamic Law. Thus, these Muslims
simply
avoided foods that did not follow the dietary standard of Halal or
go
for other
option in the market.
The
Halal marketplace is emerging as one of the most
lucrative and influential market arenas in the world today. Halal is no
longer
just a purely religious issue, as it has become a global symbol for
quality
assurance and lifestyle choice. It is a new market force that should
not be
overlooked.
The
booming Muslim
population in the Middle East, North
Africa, South and Southeast Asia, the former Soviet Union and China
present a
lucrative chain for the food market. Today, the two largest markets for
Halal
products are Southeast Asia and the Middle
East.
These areas equal more than 400 million Muslim
consumers. Amount to, a Muslim
buyer base estimated to be 1.9 billion is spread over 112 countries.
With a
global consumer base of about 1.9 billion across 112
countries, the Halal
market is estimated to be worth trillions of US
Dollars.

This
scattering of Muslims
has resulted in different in races, cultures,
traditions, and lifestyles, even though they are of the same religion.
However,
when it comes to Islamic regulations, Muslims
strictly comply with the
instructions revealed in the scriptures, especially those concerning
eating
habits and how they should be observed.
It
dose not mean that all Islamic
people have to consume the same thing or
the same kind of food, but they must eat food, but they must eat foods
that are
considered “Halal”

Remember,
Halal can be
eaten by non Muslims, however Muslims will only eat
Halal Only. |
