The expo aims to bridge businesses with global Halal markets, promote innovation in finance and trade, and provide practical pathways for compliance and expansion.
The program features exhibitions, expert panel sessions, strategic investment roundtables, and immersive cultural showcases, from Halal culinary experiences to fashion and art exhibitions.
SMEs, startups, and multinationals alike will be looking to forge partnerships, unveil new products, and tap into the multi-billion-dollar Halal economy.

Extensive media coverage through Somali Magazine’s digital, print, and social platforms will give participants national and regional visibility.
"Kenya has positioned itself as a regional leader in Islamic finance, Halal trade, and ethical investments. Major financial institutions are embracing Sharia compliance, and businesses across food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and tourism are tapping into the multi-billion-dollar Halal market," said Ridwan Yusuf, the CEO and Founder of Sharia Compliance and Halal Business Expo.
