TE-FOOD’s technology will be utilised on two pilot projects in June 2018 with HALAL TRAIL™️, a UK based company, to track chickens and lambs from farm to table, through the halal food chain.

The pilots will be implemented through a new collaboration with HALAL TRAIL who have developed innovative halal traceability solutions with TE-FOOD. HALAL TRAIL will be the first solution to expand to all global halal food markets, and provide food traceability and quality verification services for the sector.

From the 7.6 billion people in the world, almost 2 billion are Muslims. The halal method in the food industry refers to the permissible or lawful way of preparing food and drinks according to Islamic law. Due to religious reasons, this enormous market of Muslims consciously seeks trusted, halal certified sources when they buy food. Their motivation to check the source is very strong.

According to industry estimations, the global halal food market will reach USD 2.55 trillion by 2024.
