Ramadan, the holiest month in the Islamic calendar, is a time of spiritual reflection, worship, and devotion for Muslims worldwide.
However, Ramadan is not just a time of religious significance but also one of the biggest marketing seasons worldwide.
With its highest active core in the Middle East & Asia Pacific region, the month presents an excellent opportunity for brands to connect with Muslim consumers and promote their products and services.
What makes Ramadan fascinating is that it is not just a month of physical and spiritual discipline but also a time for exhibiting humane values such as compassion, generosity, and empathy towards fellow human beings.
