Halal Supply Chain Management

The purpose of the Halal SuperHighway design is to provide a blueprint for the command & control of global Halal supply chains. The Halal SuperHighway is the result of a 5-year research program conducted under the Halal Research Centre of LBB International in Malaysia. In this research report the supply chain strategy, supply chain network structure, supply chain business processes and supply chain control are defined. The Halal SuperHighway can be an important instrument in the authentication of Halal in a supply chain, providing market access and a cost advantage for the Halal industry. http://www.grin.com/en/e-book/181612/halal-superhighway  

Halal  supply chain management is based on avoiding direct contact with  Haram , addressing the risk of contamination and ensuring that it is in line with the perception of the Muslim consumer. In particular, the product and market characteristics are important variables in the supply chain management of  Halal  supply chains. Further empirical research is needed to measure the perception of the Muslim consumer. A better understanding is also required into the principles in organising the  Halal  supply chain for different markets (Muslim and non-Muslim countries). There is a need for a  Halal  supply chain model that is able to describe and optimise  Halal  supply chains. http://www.emeraldinsight.com/journals.htm?articleid=1937807
