The UK’s buzzing Islamic economy is being driven by the country’s expanding calendar of trade shows. The last two years has seen the arrival of several well-attended consumer shows that are helping to drive the market, from the London Halal Food Festival to the Muslim Lifestyle Show and Muslim Lifestyle Expo.
