In South Africa, HALAL certification ensures that products and services comply with Islamic dietary laws. Organizations seeking HALAL certification must adhere to specific guidelines regarding the sourcing, preparation, and handling of food and non-food items. The certification process involves an assessment by a recognized HALAL certification body, such as the South African National Halaal Authority (SANHA) or the Muslim Judicial Council Halaal Trust (MJCHT). These bodies conduct inspections, audits, and tests to verify compliance with HALAL standards. Once certified, businesses can display the HALAL logo, signaling to consumers that their products meet strict religious requirements, thereby gaining trust and expanding their market reach.
