ABSTRACT
Not much is known internationally about the Halal industry in South Korea, a non-Islamic country. In South Korea, a major manufacturing country whose main growth engine is product exports, the government-led Halal industry promotion policy was developed from 2015 to 2019. This chapter aims to share with the world a part of the development process of Korea’s Halal promotion policy. In particular, this chapter focuses on the introduction of Halal logistics during the development of Korea’s Halal promotion policy. This chapter records the key results of major projects for each year in chronological order, including an in-depth survey of the Halal logistics industry in 2017, a survey on Halal product production, distribution and Halal logistics demand in 2018, and the implementation of a Halal logistics pilot project in 2019.
