Global platform for halal-friendly accommodation, Halal Booking, has made its highest ever monthly bookings at over $4 million in June 2019.

The company’s previous highest monthly bookings totalled $3.2 million.

CEO Elnur Seyidli said sales for July are expected to be higher.

“We are very excited to have broken our record for the highest amount of sales made in one calendar month. We have had a strong start to July, so we are expecting that sales for July will be even higher.

“We are delighted to report these milestones, despite challenging trading conditions in two major markets, with Brexit uncertainty in the UK, and the stark economic slowdown in Turkey,” he said.
