Malaysia: Exporter Guide

As Malaysia's economy begins to recover from COVID-19 impacts, U.S. exporters can find strong opportunities in the retail food and food processing sectors. While recovery may take longer in the HRI sector, Malaysians' love of dining out and continued development of tourism will contribute to future growth in this area. With a highly urbanized population, growing per capita income, and a positive view of U.S. food products, Malaysia is an attractive market, provided that U.S. suppliers can navigate Malaysia's halal certification requirements and competition with other major food exporting countries.
