2 WHY HALAL TOURISM? Global Muslim Lifestyle Travel Market 2012 Posted on November 3, 2012 by Think Ethnic A new groundbreaking study, Global Muslim Lifestyle Travel Market: Landscape & Consumer Needs, shows that Muslim tourists globally represent a major niche market worth $126.1 billion in 2011 growing at a higher 4.8% through 2020, compared to global average of 3.8%. In a challenging global economic environment, the Study highlights how airlines, tourism destinations, and hotels/resorts can benefit by engaging with a market that has a young demographic, is growing in affluence, and is increasingly asserting its unique needs on the tourism industry.

3 Consider this: Australia s Gold Coast is attracting Muslim tourists by offering a Gold Coast Ramadan Lounge In Thailand, spa outlets have introduced the concept of Muslim friendly spas in a bid to lure tourists from the Middle East Global Health City, in Chennai, India, has gotten Halal certified to better serve its growing medical tourists from Muslim countries Even in Muslim majority destinations, hotels/resorts such as De Palma Group of Hotels in Malaysia, Al Jawhara Hotel in Dubai, Amer Group of Resorts in Egypt, Ciragan Palace Kempinski Hotel in Turkey are offering Muslim lifestyle focussed services Airlines and destinations are just beginning to pay attention

4 Chart: Outbound Tourism Expenditure, (in US$ millions) However, as this study shows, there is a multibillion dollar customer base whose latent needs are yet to be met by the tourism industry. Muslim tourists may very well be the largest untapped niche market of the tourism Industry. This Study estimates that the global Muslim tourism market in 2011 was $126.1 billion in outbound expenditure (excluding core religious travel expenditure of Hajj & Umrah, but including leisure, business, and rest of tourism segments). This expenditure is 12.3% of the total global outbound tourism expenditure in 2011 of $1,034 billion as estimated by (UNWTO) World Tourism Organization.

5 Comparatively this Muslim Tourism Market as a whole is larger than the largest spending tourist market in the world Germany and almost twice that of China s in The top Outbound Muslim Tourism source country is Saudi Arabia in 2011, followed by Iran, UAE, Indonesia and Kuwait. Muslim communities living in non Muslim countries also have sizable outbound tourism expenditure share. The largest of these markets are Germany, Russia, France and UK the top destinations for Muslim Tourists are Malaysia, Turkey, and UAE. The following six markets are Singapore, Russia, China France, Thailand and Italy.

18 SLAUGHTERING New Zealand has been exporting halal meat since the 1970s. It s good to have knowledge rather than to be in the dark. Ritchie says the Government, via the New Zealand Food Safety Authority, brought in the Halal Notice in 2010 as a result of market pressure. In 2005, Malaysia delisted most New Zealand meat processing plants on ambiguous halal-based grounds. The implementation of the Halal Notice helped to overcome these restrictions, with 17 plants now approved for export to Malaysia. BY THE NUMBERS Nearly 20 per cent of New Zealand s total exports of red meat and edible co-products were halal-certified Halal products were exported to 66 countries 75,000 tonnes of halal-certified exports, worth $392 million, were sent to Muslim countries The remaining 115,000 tonnes of halal-certified exports went to other countries.
