Mecca Halal Forum Strengthens Global Standards, a New Chapter for the World's Islamic Economy

The third edition of the Mecca Halal Forum at the Makkah Chamber of Commerce and Industry Exhibition and Events Center opened a new chapter for the global halal industry. The signing of 15 cooperation agreements at the forum's closing signaled steps toward harmonizing global halal standards, reducing trade barriers, and strengthening consumer trust. Over three days, the forum brought together government representatives, industry players, and experts to discuss regulatory harmonization, cross-border trade, and investment. Organizers felt this year's forum yielded concrete commitments, shifting from discussion to real action. The birth of 15 agreements is expected to strengthen halal economic integration, align diverse certification standards, boost export efficiency, and build international consumer confidence. The forum emphasized the importance of trust in certification systems through strengthened standards and inter-country cooperation. In the long run, harmonizing standards can reduce certification duplication, speed up trade, and enhance the competitiveness of the halal industry. The Mecca Halal Forum is hoped to be a momentum for strengthening an integrated, transparent, and globally competitive halal ecosystem. https://mozaik.inilah.com/halal-living/forum-halal-mekah-perkuat-standar-global-babak-baru-ekonomi-syariah-dunia
