Halal is an Arabic word which means PermittedAllowed, or Lawful in Islam. Basically, all products are Halal, except those which are declared Haram as per Shariah, including pork & other Non-Halal animals, carrions, animals slaughtered improperly, ethanol & other intoxicants, contaminated and hazardous food etc. 

The Halal market includes Food products & Food services, as well as Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics, Personal Care Products, Cleaning Agents, Packaging Material, Animal & Poultry feed, Hospitality & Tourism, Modest Clothing and Logistics.

Thus, Halal Certification is the process of having a qualified independent third party supervise the production of consumables, attesting that they were produced in conformity with the preparation and ingredient standards of the halal lifestyle. After successful adoption and performance of halal productivity procedures, the supervisory third party then issues Halal Certification to the producer attesting to halal conformity on a per product basis. While halal requires foods to be wholesome and pure, Halal Certification has left the issue of food safety to the government regulatory bodies.

The answer is so simple, “UNLOCK POTENTIALS“.

The market for halal certified products is large and fast-growing. It includes the 1.9 billion Muslims worldwide and many millions of health-conscious non-Muslims who choose to eat halal certified products because these products are inherently cleaner and manufactured in a compassionate manner with respect to the treatment of slaughtered animals. (When animals are slaughtered in a less compassionate manner, hormones and toxins from fear and shock are released into the respective bloodstreams of the animals; these hormones and toxins find their way into the musculature and taint the aft-consumed meat with unnecessary ingredients.) There are over 9 million Muslims in North America, over 20 million in Europe, over 300 million in Africa, nearly 200 million in the Middle East and over 800 million in Asia.
