ISLAMABAD, /DNA/ – More than 40 thousand visitors and 4.5 thousand goods according to Halal standards from all over the world. On 14-19 May 2024 in Russia (Kazan, Republic of Tatarstan) will open the country’s largest trading platform for Muslims – the International Trade Fair Kazan Halal Market.
The fair will be held as part of the annual International Economic Forum “Russia – Islamic World: KazanForum”, which traditionally gathers representatives of all countries of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
“In recent years, trade turnover between Russia and the OIC states has been growing. In 2021, it totalled $113.3 billion, a 43.2% increase compared to 2017,” said Hussein Ibrahim Taha, Secretary General of the OIC, in an address to the participants of KazanForum-2023. The halal market and mutual supply of products complying with the norms of Islam opens new opportunities, he believes.
“The global Halal market is growing very fast and is now estimated at $2.6 trillion. I hope the work of the Forum will contribute to the further development of the Halal industry in Russia and trade. And by 2028, the market is expected to be worth more than $11 trillion,” said the OIC Secretary General in May 2023.
