"This publication is the first course outline for Halal Business Management to help decide whether or not to introduce Halal certification, and the best practices connected to it, into your business plan; or how to excel at it if you are already Halal certified. It also highlights the weak areas that need to be addressed, with emphasis on training throughout the organisation for end-to-end Halal assurance.

Both newcomers and those already in business will find clear explanations and illustrative examples on the main topics related to Halal Trade. Starting with Halal Certification, which remains a topic of debate, the Guide provides an overview of other, often neglected, but equally relevant issues, such as Halal Supply Chain Management, Branding and Marketing and the sensitive issue of Halal Risk and Reputation, where Dr. Tieman shares his valuable expertise in the field. A much needed critical approach to this expanding market and its complexities." - Dr. Barbara Ruiz-Bejarano, Instituto Halal
