Dream - Halal certification as a guarantee of halalness for Muslims can also apply to storage places or warehouses, not only for food ingredients or processed products. This is the certification obtained by PT Global Digital Niaga, the owner of e-Commerce Blibli, which has recently obtained halal certificates for their two warehouses.
The granting of certificates for Blibli's logistics facilities in Kramat Jati and Batu Ceper reaffirms the company's commitment to implementing halal standard operating procedures. Halal warehousing standardization has also been implemented throughout its warehouse network.
Special teams are involved in overseeing the warehouses according to the Halal Assurance System (HAS 23000).
“We also ensure that all processes in the warehouse facilities and our staff meet the operational standards that prioritize halal product assurance criteria and cleanliness,” said Sindu Sirat, VP of Supply Chain Management Blibli, on Tuesday, June 27, 2023.
This certificate issuance is a follow-up to the signing of a Cooperation Agreement (PKS) between Blibli and the Halal Product Assurance Agency (BPJPH) some time ago regarding the integration of halal product data available on Blibli.
With this achievement, Muslim consumers in Indonesia can easily and comfortably search for halal products through Blibli Hasanah's curation, while also being assured of the halal warehousing services, including trained staff in accordance with the Halal Assurance System.
In addition, Blibli has also launched a special microsite for halal products, called Blibli Hasanah. This is in line with Indonesia being the country with the largest Muslim population in the world.
In 2022, there were more than 55 thousand sellers and 4 million products marketed through Blibli Hasanah, divided into several categories. All categories experienced a 9.9-fold increase in transactions from 2021 to 2022.
In addition, Blibli Hasanah also recorded a surge in visits up to 280 times in the last 12 months, indicating an increasing interest in halal products by consumers.
As is known, the Indonesian population currently accounts for 13% of the total Muslim population in the world. This has led to the growth and consumption of halal products increasing over time.
Therefore, the halal product market in Indonesia is estimated to reach 281.6 billion US dollars in 2025.
“As the first halal omnichannel trading ecosystem and the leading lifestyle platform in Indonesia, Blibli continues to strengthen its commitment to providing the best services in all sectors, including the halal industry,” said Sindu.
