Halal Logo

Halal Logo is very important for restaurants, caterers, food manufacturers, eating establishments, cafes, etc. This halal logo will help their consumers know that they provide a halal product to be consumed by Muslim. Every different countries have their own halal logo. Most of it bears the organisation authrosied with Halal emblem of that particular countries inscripted in the LOGO. Here are some samples:

The halal markets had increased tremendously around the world. With internet and global travel, embarking in the halal industries had help some business to boost their profit. With it, the rate of unemployment do drop in some countries due to expension in business.

For a start, lets take Singapore as a guide. The number of Halal eating establishment had increased every year. The government body incharge for this halal certification Majlish Ugama Islam Singapura or MUIS had to recruit more employee in order to meet the demand for application of the certification of Halal.

The list of restaurants, cafes, caterers or eating establishment providing Halal food had seen increased in their profit. If previously, when they are not certified halal, they can only cater for non Muslim. With some minor adjustment on changes and a little bit more of investment for the halal certification, their move to do it is a worthwhile effort.

If you are in Singapore, rest assured that all fastfood joints like McDonalds, KFC, Long John Silver, Burger Kings and Pizza Hut are certified halal. You can see that the Halal certificate issued by Muis is prominently display at their eating premises. Recently, Coffee Beans and Tea Leaf had attained the Halal status. This make them the only designer coffee joints in Singapore which is certified Halal.

Welcome To My Halal Makan Makan Blog


Welcome to my blog.
This blog is to share with all on halal food, halal caterers, halal restaurants, halal food joints, halal eateries, halal products, halal meat, halal vitamins, halal supplements, halal pizza, halal bakeries, etc.
Halal is an arabic word for permits or allowable. The opposite is haram which translated to forbidden or disallowed. All Muslim can consume food derived from halal sources or the base product is of halal origin. Animals meat which is Halal to be eaten will be slaughter according to Islamic right.
My purpose of starting this blog is to give some guide for others to get halal food whether it is local (Singapore) or within Asia or places that I had travelled to. Beside trying halal food, I love to travel and definitely, I will look for halal restaurants, halal food joints or any place that provide halal food during my travelling. I hope that whoever read this blog will somehow benefit from my input. Insyallah.
