Best Practice Halal Integrity Management in The Logistic Chain Scheme: Analysis of Opportunities and Challenges

Abstract

Nowadays, consumers are increasingly aware and concerned about halal status, and activities in the supply chain are truly halal guaranteed for them to buy. This article aims to explore the development of halal logistics, analyze the opportunity and challenge factors in its development stage, and create a best practice scheme to realize halal integrity. This research method uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using secondary data from a number of previous studies discussing halal logistics and halal integrity in the supply chain. From this study, it is known that countries in Southeast Asia have shown a positive response to the existence of a halal logistics scheme as an innovation in the supply chain. Several opportunities known for the development of halal logistics mainly lie in the high demand for halal products, the positive growth of the sharia economy, the use of information technology, and the strengthening of the halal ecosystem. Meanwhile, regarding challenges, there is no special regulation regulating halal logistics, low stakeholder knowledge about halal, a lack of experts and researchers, and the absence of special infrastructure that handles halal products. In the end, the author develops a halal integrity scheme in the supply chain with a logistics management approach. It is hoped that this article can provide a better understanding of halal integrity in the supply chain. Further research can empirically test the relationship between logistics management and halal integrity.
