Ummah foods launches first ever chocolate bar for 3 million sweet toothed muslims
Ummah Foods announces the launch of the first chocolate bar for the three million strong sweet loving Muslim community in the UK on the 1st May 2004.

(PRWEB) April 24, 2004--Ummah Foods announces the launch of the first chocolate bar for the three million strong sweet loving Muslim community in the UK on the 1st May 2004. The milk chocolate bar with a caramel filling is the first of many confectionery products that will be hitting the stores soon under the Ummah Foods label.

Ummah Food’s Director Khalid Sharif, 30, plans to follow in the footsteps of other community based business and turn Ummah Foods into a global brand for quality and community.

Mintel estimated Muslim spending power at twenty billion pounds in 2002, and now Muslim consumers can choose to support businesses that practice community responsibility through their purchases. For every Ummah Foods product sold, ten percent of the profit will go to charities and community projects. Ummah Foods hopes to partner with and support education projects, homeless charities, humanitarian and community projects. On a local level it wants to encourage greater achievement in schools, assist young artists and journalists.

Ummah Foods plan is also to support and boost the current revival of the Islamic art scene by employing up and coming British Muslim artists for all its packaging designs. We aim to support the Muslim community in Britain at every level in this company, even if it means rewriting the rules of business.

Preparation for the next set of products, which includes chocolate orange, is well underway, and for the first time the target market will be in the UK. France and Germany to follow. Ummah Foods aims to reach the one billion Muslim consumers globally with its goods and its vision of helping and supporting Muslim and non-Muslims in need across the world.

Insha-allah, they wil be launching and providing their 'delicious' chocalate World wide.

Why dont you ask one of your local islamic shops in the states to become a retail/wholesaler of the chocolate.

Or follow what saleel said. Get the chocolate for yourself and give me the hijab.

Wasalam.

If you got Jamia Stores in leicester (directly opposite Jamia Masjid) you will find a rang of "islamic" crisps so to say.

I don't know the names, but they do exist!

my husband was at isna and goes he got me some nice treats to eat and im like what are they? then he goes halal crispies and i said thanks for the offer but i cant eat them, and he goes they're halal, and i said check the back labeling to see what kind of gelatin they use, is it vegetable source or fish and he goes it says fish gelatin and i said well.... then he goes oh... i guess i'll eat them for myself.

im allergic to fish..all kinds of seafood... and peas/snow peas...

Chocolate wrappers are of very hard quality and it leave that ingredient which are available in the paper or that packaging maerial.Wrappers should not be like that.

I love chocolates and when it comes of Ummah Foods I can not stop eating it. From the3 beginning I am fond of its products and try each of its new products without missing any of them. My favourite chocolate is Milk chocolate with peanuts.

Do they use alcohol containing flavors in their chocolates?. They have to decalred if they do not use otherwise it will not be Halal according to majority of Muslims.
