Japan Halal Expo 2015

10/2/2015

Japan has the potential to become a major player in the halal market.

Japanese have a positive affinity with halal foods, mostly because their well-maintained sense of public hygiene aligns very well with the idea of cleanness that is at the crux of halal foods.

Titled Japan Halal Expo 2015, the two-day event in the Makuhari Messe convention center in the city of Chiba, will essentially seek to boost public awareness of halal fare, enlighten visitors on the latest market trends surrounding Muslim tourists and allow Japan-based Muslims to give feedback on whether this is a Muslim-friendly nation.

The exhibition will also provide business opportunities and platform for information exchanges in order to assist Small and Medium-size Enterprises to expand Halal related businesses including exports.
