A trusted system to help Muslim businesses grow visibility while guiding travelers.

 

Since 2018, Halaal Travels has been working with Muslim-owned businesses and promoting halal travel worldwide. Over the years, we have published eBooks, articles, newsletters, and destination guides and we have connected thousands of travellers with halal food, masjids, and experiences they can trust.

But we kept seeing the same challenges:

  • Businesses struggling to be seen online.
  • Travelers struggling to know which businesses they can trust.
  • Marketing costs were too high for small, independent establishments.

To solve this, we created the first ever Muslim Interactive Business Directory
making growth easier for businesses and discovery simpler for travelers.

Common Challenges Muslim Businesses face

Low Online Visibility

Even great establishments get overlooked if they’re not easily discoverable on Google, Instagram, or travel websites. Being halal often makes businesses even harder to find on general platforms like TripAdvisor or Zomato. There currently is no global space for Muslims. How will AI recommend your business if you don’t have a digital footprint?

Limited Reach

Muslim travelers from abroad and within South Africa are actively searching for halal food options when visiting new cities — but they don’t know where to look or who to trust. Restaurants miss out on a ready-to-spend market.

Trust Barrier

Customers want assurance that a place is truly halal (not just “no pork”). Without certification or word-of-mouth, many Muslims will choose a safe option that has good visibility.

Lack of Reviews or Social Proof

A restaurant might have loyal local customers, but without verified reviews, beautiful content, or mentions in “top halal spots” guides, it’s hard to compete with flashier or better-known establishments.

Seasonal Slumps

Outside of weekends business may slow down. Restaurants struggle to maintain steady foot traffic throughout the year.

High Cost of Traditional Marketing

Running Google or Instagram ads is expensive and often misses the target. You’re paying to reach people who don’t care, or who live too far away. 

Poorly Managed Online Presence

Some businesses don’t have updated websites, working menus, online booking systems, or even good photos. This makes them look less appealing even if their food is amazing.

Competition from Mainstream Chains

Even if you are a gem in your area, bigger franchises have more resources for marketing, deals, and flashy promotions. It’s hard to compete unless you are in the right niche platform.

No System to Promote Special Offers

You have Ramadan specials, buffet nights, or weekend deals, but unless someone walks past your door or follows you on Instagram, they will never know.

Difficulty in Building a Loyal Customer Base

Without tools to capture leads, encourage return visits, or promote reviews, muslim businesses lose one-time customers and fail to turn them into regulars.
