TIME magazine recently quoted Muxlim CEO Mohamed El-Fatatry in an article about the one trillion dollar global Halal industry.

For non-food companies like South Korea’s LG and Finnish cell-phone giant Nokia, targeting Muslims is also big business. LG offers an application to help users find the direction of Mecca, while Nokia has free downloadable recitations from the Koran and maps showing the locations of major mosques in the Middle East. Such offerings increase brand loyalty, according to market research by the Finland-based Muslim lifestyle portal Muxlim.com. “There’s a lot of room out there for mainstream brands to appeal to Muslims without making changes to their products,” says Muxlim.com’s CEO Mohamed El-Fatatry. “It’s just about their marketing messages, about showing that this brand is interested in them as consumers.”
