Copenhagen (IINA) – In a bid to boost its halal meat exports, Denmark aims to develop common industry standards through collaboration between producers, brokers and marketers of meat in the Nordic country, On Islam website reported.
“There is a shift towards more stringent halal rules in a number of countries,” Stig Larsen, a senior consultant to Danish Agriculture & Food Council trade and market department, told Global Meat News on Friday.
“Malaysia is the country with the strictest rules, but also countries such as Indonesia, Saudi Arabia and Singapore have strict requirements, while African countries can also have stringent regulations,” he said.
Larsen was speaking about the two-day seminar, scheduled to take place in Copenhagen in June, to tackle the aspects of halal meat industry in Denmark, including slaughtering, production, and export.
The seminar will also highlight halal rules in Malaysia, as part of Danish efforts to accelerate the standardization of halal rules. The seminar, which was announced during a meeting between the Danish Agriculture & Food Council and producers, brokers and marketers of halal meat, aimed to discuss developing halal standards that consider the differences of halal slaughtering conventions between countries.
