Bangladesh has introduced a new policy aimed at expanding its footprint in the global halal products market, aligning its production and certification processes with international standards. The initiative primarily targets export growth to Gulf countries and Southeast Asia, where millions of Bangladeshi expatriates reside, including in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, Malaysia, and Singapore.<\/p>\n
Officials see this consumer base\u2014estimated at nearly 10 million people\u2014as a key market for Bangladeshi halal products.

A December meeting involving the Islamic Foundation Bangladesh, the Islamic Development Bank, and Malaysian partners led to plans for a comprehensive halal ecosystem.
