Sizeable
market neglected by global brands, argues Oxford branding
expert
A leading expert on Islamic brands is highlighting the untapped
potential in Islamic markets which most companies are failing
to exploit. The global Muslim market is now over 20% of the
world’s population at around 1.6 billion, and is expected
to increase to 2.2 billion by 2030, situated in both those
regions where Muslims are in the majority, but also in other
countries where Muslims are a significant and growing minority,
including those in the West. The value of Muslim trade is
assessed as worth trillions of dollars worldwide. |
