INTRODUCTION

The American Halal Association (AHA) is a non-profit Association that has been formed to provide a common platform for the stakeholders in the Halal industry in North America.

As the Halal market continues to expand all over the world, the importance of the Halal sector in the North America becomes more apparent.

The nine million Muslims living in the USA represent a powerful consumer segment responsible for spending an estimated $170 billion annually; a significant portion of this is naturally spent on food and personal care items.

In addition to the domestic market, Halal represents an important opportunity for exporters to access overseas markets, especially in the Middle East and South East Asia

The AHA has been formed by a group of committed Halal industry professionals to strengthen the industry and stimulate the market, and to connect American Halal market stakeholders to the groundswell of interest and activity in the Halal sector world-wide.
