Halal Certification
Halal is more than a dietary guideline — it’s a comprehensive system rooted in faith, ethics, and trust.
Understanding Halal
Halal, meaning “permissible”, encompasses all aspects of a product’s lifecycle — from sourcing and processing to packaging and logistics. For meat and poultry, this means the animal must be healthy at the time of slaughter, the process must be done by a practicing Muslim, and the name of Allah must be invoked.
Halal is not just a religious requirement — it’s a globally recognised standard of purity, quality, and ethical production.
- Beyond meat, Halal certification also ensures:
- No contamination with non-Halal substances (e.g. alcohol, pork)
- Cross-contamination control
- Traceability and compliance through the supply chain
