Trade Fair Overview

Malaysia International Halal Showcase (MIHAS) is an annual trade fair held every second quarter of the year in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Organized under the auspices of the Malaysian government, MIHAS is hosted by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) and is organized by the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE).

MIHAS 2012 was held on 4th - 7th April 2012 at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. For the 9th edition of MIHAS, the highlighted theme was "Empowering The Global Halal Market" to embraces the halal concept in all its dimensions from pharmaceuticals and herbal products, cosmetics and health care to Islamic investment, banking and takaful.

Every year since its inception, MIHAS hosts over 500 buyers and matches them with participants of MIHAS from Malaysia. During MIHAS 2012, this programme resulted in total immediate and negotiated sales of over RM514.84 million.

Today, MIHAS is the premier event that is not limited to the ASEAN region alone but is also supported internationally by the enthusiastic participation of International Pavilions from countries across the globe.
