 Integral management of physical goods flow and information flow that complies with the aspect of Syariah
 A supply chain approach that ensures integrity from :
Farm (upstreams) Fork (downstream)

 The halal industry implements a 'farm to table' operation, presenting opportunities for various players in the logistics industry to climb aboard the process including ports, shipping and freight forwarding, warehousing and handling facilities.

Religious Department (JAIPP) to a single dedicated department, the Halal
Management Division, enabling a more professional approach to certification.
