KUALA LUMPUR: DagangHalal.com, a global halal-verified business-to-business e-marketplace and digital compliance platform, strengthened Malaysia’s presence at MEGA HALAL Bangkok 2026 through its appointment by Comasia Limited as Strategic Sales Partner for Malaysia, China and Japan.
Under the mandate, DagangHalal supported exhibitor recruitment, international buyer outreach and regional business development. The exhibition was held from 15 to 17 July 2026 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre in Bangkok.
Malaysia was represented by 24 exhibitors across food and beverage, wellness and health, beauty and personal care, and other halal consumer segments. DagangHalal’s World Halal Supermarket also showcased more than 40 halal brands to buyers, importers and distributors throughout the exhibition.
The participating companies gained direct access to potential business partners, enabling them to assess market demand, understand buyer requirements and explore commercial opportunities in Thailand and the wider ASEAN region.
The opening ceremony was jointly officiated by Thailand’s Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, H.E. Anutin Charnvirakul, and His Highness Prince Sulaiman Shah Al-Haj, who also delivered an address at the event.
The Prime Minister presented a keynote under the theme "HALAL CONNECT: From Local Trust to Global Trade”, reflecting Thailand’s ambition to strengthen its role as a regional gateway for halal products, international sourcing and cross-border commerce.
Following the official opening, H.E. Datuk Wan Zaidi Wan Abdullah, Ambassador of Malaysia to the Kingdom of Thailand, met Malaysian exhibitors to learn more about their products, export plans and efforts to develop stronger commercial partnerships across Thailand and ASEAN.
During the engagement, the Ambassador reaffirmed Malaysia’s position as a trusted halal sourcing and manufacturing hub. He also highlighted Thailand’s importance as one of Malaysia’s key economic partners, particularly in halal-industry development, food production and integrated regional supply chains.
Malaysia’s participation complements the country’s wider export-development agenda led by the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation, including efforts to connect Malaysian exporters with international buyers through trade exhibitions, sourcing programmes and market-access initiatives.
In a statement, the Company said, "MEGA HALAL Bangkok gives Malaysian companies a direct opportunity to meet buyers, distributors and trade partners from across the region. We are helping participating companies present their products, understand market requirements and develop relationships that can continue beyond the exhibition.
"By combining physical trade engagement with DagangHalal’s digital marketplace and compliance capabilities, we aim to help more manufacturers build a structured path towards regional expansion. We also hope to work more closely with MATRADE and other trade-promotion agencies to broaden Malaysia’s representation at future editions.”
According to the organisers, the co-located MEGA HALAL Bangkok and MEGA SHOW Bangkok 2026 featured more than 1,200 exhibitors from 22 countries and regions across over 1,300 booths. The combined events targeted more than 20,000 buyers and business visitors from over 70 markets, supported by more than 1,200 business-matching meetings.
DagangHalal also introduced manufacturers and exporters to its Halal Internal Assurance System, a cloud-based platform designed to support halal and food-safety documentation, audit readiness, certificate monitoring, corrective-action management and traceability. - Bernama
