Hi there,
It’s exactly one week since the Eid Mubarak holiday and I trust work has been great especially after a short week. Welcome to another Productivity Wednesday and today, we will continue the conversation on Standards but today, we take it a notch higher.
I like to take a close look at products when I am making purchases especially for new products in the Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) and if you are like me, you would have noticed the word “Halal” on dairy products, cleaning agents and even drinks.
Halal Certification Authority is a faith-based products certification body that develops Halal products standards and conducts inspection in accordance with Islamic law (Sharia Law) that is internationally accepted and reliable for both domestic and foreign consumers. Halal certification is a process which ensure the features and quality of the products to the rules established by the Islamic council that allow the use of the mark ‘Halal’. It is mainly applied to meat products and other diary and food products such as milk, canned food and additives. Specifically, for the meat products Halal certifies that the animals were slaughtered in a single cut, thoroughly bled, and their meat have not been in contact with animals slaughtered otherwise and especially, with pork. Products that are Halal certified are often marked with a Halal symbol or simply the letter ‘M’.
As an FMCG that seeks to break into the Islamic market both in Nigeria and abroad, the Halal certification is a must have and 21Search can help get your Halal certification without any hassles. Kindly visit our website on www.21Search.com.ng to request a quote.
Until I come your way again, stay safe and work smart and not just hard.
