Halal

Access the world's largest consumer market by meeting the requirements that buyers and regulators across the GCC demand.

Halal certification verifies that your products and processes comply with Islamic law requirements — from ingredients and production to storage and logistics. In the GCC it is a regulatory baseline. For exporters, it unlocks demand across more than 50 countries.

The scope of Halal

  • Ingredient and raw material verificationEvery ingredient, additive, and processing aid is assessed for halal compliance — from sourcing through to finished product.
  • Production and processing controlsYour facility, equipment, and production lines are assessed for contamination risks, cleaning procedures, and segregation where required.
  • Supply chain traceabilityHalal integrity doesn't end at your factory gate — we help you extend controls to suppliers and logistics providers.
  • Documentation and labelling complianceEstablish the record-keeping and product labelling required to maintain certification and satisfy regulators and buyers.

The business case

01
Meet GCC regulatory requirements

Halal certification is a legal requirement for food and certain personal care products sold in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and other GCC markets.

02
Unlock 2 billion consumers

The global halal market exceeds $2 trillion annually. Certification is your entry ticket to Muslim-majority markets worldwide.

03
Strengthen retailer relationships

Major GCC retailers require halal certification for supplier approval — without it, shelf space is simply unavailable.

04
Differentiate in competitive markets

Where halal is expected, certification is a baseline. Where it is not yet standard, it is a meaningful competitive edge.
