Africanews | Senegal: Harnessing the potential of Africa’s halal businesses

Africanews | Senegal: Harnessing the potential of Africa’s halal businesses: "Senegal’s Prime Minister Mohammed Abdullah Dione said “the halal market offers new opportunities.”

The halal market he noted, has become a global market with growth potential that must meet the needs of about 1.6 billion Muslims in the world.

According to Morocco’s Foreign Trade Minister, Mohammed Abbou, “the Halal sector has become a market, first for Africa, and then the Asia pacific countries. As you know, the North African countries are predominantly Muslim. And in the ECOWAS region, two-thirds of the population of 300 million is made up of Muslims. So this is a very important potential market for Africa.”"
