BLACKMORES Malaysia has made history as the first Australian-manufactured finished goods brand to receive halal certification from the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM).
This milestone reflects the company’s dedication to quality, transparency, and ethical business practices, further strengthening consumer trust in its products.
The official certification ceremony took place at Connexion Conference & Event Centre, Bangsar South, on Feb 12, 2025, where Mohd Dhaliff Ghaus Mohd Anuar, Head of Halal Consultancy & Advisory from Halal Development Corporation Berhad (HDC), presented the certification to Kumaran Chandrasergaran, Country Manager of BLACKMORES Malaysia & Singapore.
The event was also graced by Her Excellency Danielle Heinecke, the Australian High Commissioner to Malaysia.
BLACKMORES’ commitment to Halal compliance goes beyond religious adherence. The company ensure that its products meet stringent safety standards, maintain transparent ingredient sourcing, and follow ethical manufacturing practices.
The certification reinforces BLACKMORES’ pledge to sustainability, ethical labour practices, and animal welfare, aligning with global health and wellness trends.
“For us, this halal certification is not just about compliance; it’s a commitment to transparency, ethical sourcing, and integrity in every aspect of our business,” said Kumaran.
He emphasised that the certification assures Muslim consumers that BLACKMORES’ products align with their values while guaranteeing all customers high-quality and safe health solutions.
The recognition marks a significant step forward for BLACKMORES in Malaysia’s growing halal market, where consumer demand for certified products is on the rise. This achievement not only enhances brand credibility but also strengthens trade relations between Australia and Malaysia.
Australian High Commissioner to Malaysia Danielle Heinecke highlighted that this milestone showcases the strong Australia-Malaysia partnership, demonstrating how Australian innovation aligns with Malaysian values and standards.
As BLACKMORES continues its expansion in Malaysia, the brand remains committed to offering trusted, natural healthcare solutions that promote consumer well-being. Winning the Platinum Trusted Brand title for 10 consecutive years further reinforces its reputation for excellence.
