HALAL OPERATIONS
Full Halal Compliance & Certified Operations
Certified by SUPKEM
Within our facility, we operate a fully dedicated Halal-only environment; handling no pork or non-Halal products of any kind. Every stage of our processing: cutting, deboning, portioning, packaging, and cold-chain dispatch, is conducted under strict Halal compliance protocols enforced by our Quality Assurance Manager, who brings over 36 years of experience responsible for food-safety systems, HACCP compliance, and quality standards across all processing operations at Muthaiga Fine Meats. All supplier slaughterhouses must hold valid Halal certification as a minimum requirement before being included on our Approved Supplier List, ensuring Halal integrity is safeguarded at the very source.
At the close of each production cycle, our products receive a Halal Certificate from the Supreme Council of Kenya Muslims (SUPKEM); Kenya's leading Islamic certification body, confirming that all processing procedures respect Islamic law and that our products are suitable for consumption by Muslims locally and internationally.
QUALITY & COMPLIANCE
Building Towards ISO & KEBS Certification
Our commitment to excellence doesn't stop at where we are today. It's a journey we're actively undertaking.
Muthaiga Fine Meats is currently working towards ISO 22000:2018 Food Safety Management System certification and the KEBS Standardization Mark. This is a deliberate, structured investment in the systems, people and processes that stand behind every cut we deliver. Every stage of the process is being carried out with the same rigour we expect of our own products: documented, measured and independently verified.
