In an aggressive move to increase Halal exports, Thailand’s Commerce Ministry has signed two export deals.

The deals with the French Casino Group which has 9,850 outlets and the Belgium-based Dehaize which has 2,705 stores worldwide, is an attempt to increase Halal exports of cooked canned food primarily to the EU market’s Muslim population of 7-8%.
