United Kingdom Halal Food Market to Grow with a CAGR of 8.95% through 2030

The United Kingdom Halal Food Market is growing Muslim population with strong religious dietary adherence, expanding halal offerings in mainstream retail and foodservice, and institutional support for certification and food safety. 

According to TechSci Research report, “United Kingdom Halal Food Market – By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the United Kingdom Halal Food Market stood at USD 89.45 Billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow USD 149.61 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 8.95% during forecast period. The United Kingdom halal food market has witnessed significant growth in recent years, driven by evolving consumer preferences, demographic shifts, and expanding availability of certified products across retail and foodservice sectors. With one of the largest Muslim populations in Western Europe, the UK offers a robust foundation for halal food consumption. However, what once was a niche ethnic category has now become a mainstream, lifestyle-driven market segment. Halal food is no longer confined to small community shops or ethnic grocers; it is now widely available in supermarkets, online platforms, restaurants, and even institutional catering, catering to both Muslim and non-Muslim consumers. The shift in consumer awareness around food safety, hygiene, and ethical sourcing has played a key role in this expansion.

The UK’s multicultural population, especially in major cities such as London, Birmingham, Manchester, and Bradford, has created a vibrant demand for halal food, supporting the growth of a dynamic ecosystem of halal producers, certifiers, and distributors. This demand has been matched by innovation from established food manufacturers and startups alike, which now offer a wide variety of halal-certified products—from fresh meat and poultry to frozen meals, snacks, and ready-to-eat convenience foods. Retailers have responded by launching in-house halal ranges and forming partnerships with certification bodies to ensure consumer trust. Meanwhile, the rise of food festivals and cultural events featuring halal cuisine has further normalized halal food as part of the UK’s culinary landscape, making it increasingly visible and accessible to a broader audience.

Today’s consumers, particularly second- and third-generation British Muslims, are seeking halal food that is not only compliant with religious practices but also meets modern expectations for quality, taste, and convenience. This has led to a rise in gourmet halal products, organic and free-range options, fusion cuisines, and health-conscious formulations. The growth of e-commerce and digital platforms has further transformed how halal food is purchased and consumed. Online platforms, mobile apps, and delivery services offer curated selections and on-demand halal products, making it easier for busy consumers to access certified food at their convenience.
