(MENAFN- Brazil-Arab News Agency (ANBA)) São Paulo – Registration is now open for those who wish to take part in the Global Halal Brazil Business Forum (GHB), the largest gathering on the halal market in the Americas. The event is organized in partnership between the Arab-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (ABCC ) and certifier FAMBRAS Halal. Already established as the leading debate on halal in Brazil, it will take place on October 27 and 28 at the Sheraton WTC in São Paulo.

Halal refers to products made in accordance with Islamic rules. Food and beverages, for instance, cannot contain alcohol or traces of pork, which are prohibited for Muslim consumption. Halal spans all segments of the Islamic economy and can even be found in service sectors such as tourism and finance. According to information from GHB itself, the global halal market encompasses 1.9 billion people across 57 countries with a combined gross domestic product of USD 7.5 trillion.

In its third edition, the GHB will feature the central theme“Halal Green – Sustainable business and intercultural dialogue on the road to COP30”, a reference to the climate summit to be held in Belém, Brazil's Pará state, in November.

Over its two days of meetings, the GHB hosts halal market experts in presentations and panels that discuss the potential of the halal market across various topics, such as sustainability, innovation and technology, and Islamic finance. During the forum, the Halal Technical-Scientific Congress (CTec) is also held, where research on the halal universe is shared.
