Halal Quest

AmBank Islamic Berhad is partnering with the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM) – one of the world's most recognised and leading Halal certification bodies – to assist SMEs/ business owners in their journey towards attaining Halal certification for their products and services.

Halal Awareness

Due to increasing awareness about the benefits of Halal-certified products and services, there is clear demand among consumers seeking products that comply with Shariah requirements.

A product or service that has been certified Halal is congruous with the concept of ‘Halalan Thoyyiban’ (Halal/Permissible and wholesome). In fact, the Halal certification by JAKIM complies with various international standards such as Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) as well as Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP). This makes them more attractive to consumers not just in Malaysia but all over the world, increasing the opportunity to penetrate the Halal export market.

The following resources provide a quick insight into what Halal is about and the benefits of Halal certification:
