DB Schenker in Malaysia offers end-to-end halal contract logistics solutions for companies in the halal market.

DB Schenker in Malaysia is officially accredited by Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia  (JAKIM) under the halal logistics standard MS 2400-2:2019 for Kuala Lumpur Logistics Centers 7 & 9 (KL07 & KLC9) located at Puncak Alam, U10 Shah Alam, Selangor. The accreditation covers both the halal supply chain, warehousing, and related services. This recognition is important as halal supply chain management is an emerging requirement for FMCG brands.

DB Schenker sees a sharp increase in demand for halal logistics from FMCG customers throughout the Southeast Asian region. It is therefore, reiterating its commitment to become the region’s leading halal logistics provider, with the main hub located in Malaysia.

DB Schenker Malaysia understands the importance of a halal value chain, and an unbroken halal supply chain for big brand owners serving Muslim markets in Southeast Asia. We feel that this need is not well served by the logistics industry and we at DB Schenker Malaysia see this as an opportunity to be one of the fully certified halal standard logistics service providers in Asia. We are gearing up towards full compliance to serve the halal industry as the innovative integrated logistics service provider of choice.

Halal contract logistics solutions provide better protection for halal cargo and corporate brands along the supply chain. Under the halal logistics system, customers can be assured that halal cargo is segregated from non-halal cargo in transport and storage. Furthermore, high hygiene standards apply to both transport and warehousing, and a solid halal assurance system is in place to continuously control the halal business processes. 

With halal supply chain management being an emerging requirement for FMCG brands, similar to existing food and product safety standards, we see a sharp growth in demand for this type of service.  DB Schenker expects the halal logistics solutions offered by the company will allow their customers to achieve a total halal supply chain for food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, strengthening its position in the FMCG business.
