Introduction to HALFEST ASEAN

LARGEST ASEAN HALAL TRADE & CONSUMER EXPO

MUSLIM CONSUMERS REPRESENT AN IMPORTANT MARKET SEGMENT IN THE ECONOMY. WITH THE MUSLIM CONSUMER MARKET TAGGED AS THE FASTEST GROWING CONSUMER SEGMENT IN THE WORLD, THERE IS ENORMOUS GROWTH POTENTIAL FOR THE HALAL INDUSTRY WHICH IS CURRENTLY ESTIMATED TO BE WORTH USD 2.3 TRILLION.

The Largest ASEAN Halal Trade and Consumer Expo, HALFEST ASEAN 2017 is happening from 23rd to 27th August 2017 at the MINES International Exhibition and Convention Centre (MIECC), Kuala Lumpur.

The 6th edition of HALFEST ASEAN will be hosted by the Ministry International Trade & Industry (MITI) and organised by Halal Industry Development Corporation (HDC), the Malaysian Halal industry development authority with the strategic collaboration of the Department of Islamic Development of Malaysia (JAKIM) with the support of the Malaysia Malay Chamber of Commerce (DPMM) and the Muslim Consumers Association of Malaysia (PPIM).

HALFEST ASEAN will also kick off with the inaugural ASEAN TRADE MATCHING PROGRAMME brought to you by HDC. All HALFEST ASEANs exhibitors will have the opportunity to participate in a 1-to-1 trade matching session with specially invited buyers from ASEAN countries and throughout Malaysia where they can promote and sell their products beyond their current market reach.
