Description
The demand for halal testing is on the rise worldwide. Halal certification can open up significant global trade opportunities for companies in the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industry segments. This is being viewed as a means to encourage exports, tourism and research. Economic opportunities for halal food exist even in non-Muslim countries, since halal certification is being perceived as an assurance of quality by consumers in general. Halal standards are applicable not only to the end products but also to the ingredients and processes used in the manufacturing, packaging, labelling, and transportation.
The halal economy covers several stake holders including the butchers involved in ritual slaughtering of meat and poultry, food manufacturers, retailers, restaurant chains, shipping companies, and halal certification agencies. Middle East and North America (MENA) are the most promising regions for halal products even though demand is global and growing.
Southeast Asia is at the forefront of developing halal testing regulations and has established processes for halal certification related to several industry sectors. Malaysia is leading the efforts in the region. Since 2006, Malaysia has been recognized as an international halal-hub for the production and trade of halal products and services.
This report focuses on the regulatory trends related to halal testing and halal certification. Particular emphasis is on the new opportunities being created by this emerging trend for technology companies with diagnostic platforms that can offer accurate and fast detection of non-halal components in various sample matrices in the areas of food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
