Canada Market

HTO has been providing halal certification to Canada since 1992.

  1. Halal in Canada is already a major market with about 1.054 million Muslims or 2.1% of the Canadian population.


2. The Halal market in Canada is currently worth $2 Billion. The Halal market is growing between 10% to 15% annually, where other market categories are growing 1% to 2%.

3. The potential and opportunity are large within this group of consumers. In addition, there is also an increase in non-Muslim consumers, noting health, food safety and great taste as reasons to seek Halal food. This development has been triggered by the change in mindset of healthy food, as well as the call for more ethical practices worldwide.
