Cracking the Code: Unveiling halal warehousing breach factors through regulators, warehouse operators, technology innovators and accelerators
Keywords:
Halal Warehousing, Halal Breach Factors, Halal Supply Chain, Halal IntegrityAbstract
This study explores key factors contributing to breaches in halal warehousing from the perspectives of regulators, operators, technology innovators, and accelerators. Using interviews and thematic analysis, it identifies major vulnerabilities, including integrity issues, fraud, weak governance, poor control mechanisms, communication breakdowns with authorities, ethical concerns, and procedural gaps. The study highlights the potential of technologies such as blockchain, IoT, and AI to improve transparency, traceability, and compliance. However, the research is limited by its single geographical focus and limited technological analysis. Future studies should further investigate technology implementation challenges and opportunities in halal warehousing and supply chains.
