The success of the Shariah Compliance and Halal Business Expo was made possible through the generous support and visionary partnership of its sponsors—each one playing a vital role in shaping the region’s halal ecosystem. At the forefront was IBS Bank, a recognized leader in Islamic finance, whose presence underscored the critical importance of faith-based banking in unlocking inclusive economic growth.
Macaash and Umma and Proxima added powerful momentum, with Macaash and Proxima’s dedication to ethical enterprise in real estate and Umma’s growing influence as a faith-centered insurance platform.
From the skies, aviation giants like I-Fly Air, Mandeeq Air, and Starsky Aviation showcased how travel can be reimagined through halal-certified service standards and regional connectivity. Their participation was not just symbolic—it was strategic, reinforcing East Africa’s role as a hub for halal tourism, Hajj logistics, and ethical transport solutions. The involvement of Faras, a brand pioneering mobility and tech-enabled logistics across the region, added a modern, youth-driven layer to the ecosystem, marrying innovation with accessibility.
Knight Frank, a global name in real estate, brought credibility and expertise to conversations about ethical investment, real asset development, and shariah-compliant property solutions, while Dahabshiil, one of Africa’s most trusted financial service providers, reminded attendees of the power of diaspora capital and cross-border trust. Each sponsor was more than a name on a banner- they were active participants in building an economy rooted in trust, faith, and shared prosperity.
Mr. Ridwan Yusuf, the CEO of Sharia Compliance and Halal Business Expo, thanked the sponsors, Exhibitors and participants alike for making the vital event a glaring success. He went on to acknowledge the incalculable role that each of the sponsors played.
Together, they elevated the expo from an industry event to a transformational gathering. Their support wasn’t just about visibility – it was about vision. A collective belief in a future where commerce meets conscience, where faith fuels progress, and where halal business isn’t just a niche – it’s the standard.
