Indonesia is set to become the Muslim Fashion center, targeting five Middle Eastern countries—Iran, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Egypt—as potential markets for exporting apparel and footwear.
"Given the current market opportunities and the growth of the Muslim fashion industry, we must remain optimistic about maximizing a share of the domestic market and boosting our competitiveness in the global market. " - said Reni Yanita, Director General of Small, Medium, and Miscellaneous Industries at the Ministry of Industry.

By 2027, Muslim spend on apparel and footwear is forecast to reach $428 billion.
Reni said that consumption of halal goods and services in Indonesia is expected to reach $330.5 billion this year. Meanwhile, apparel and fashion is the second highest consumed category in the Indonesian halal market.
