Brief Intro to SANHA
Introduction
South African National Halaal Authority
(SANHA) is a national, non-profit-making organisation, representing the
Muslim community of South Africa on all matters pertaining to the
general application of the term Halaal with specific reference to
Islamic dietary laws. SANHA's membership comprises of leading Muslim
Theological Bodies and reputable, professional Muslim organisations of South Africa. SANHA has
been established as a representative authority, which promotes
professionalism and excellence in the certification of Halaal products. SANHA is committed to standardising Halaal
procedures both nationally and internationally thereby creating
uniformity, eliminating confusion and deception in the market place and making Halaal products accessible to the Halaal-conscious consumer.
Indeed, this strategy does not only prove beneficial for the Halaal-conscious
consumer but is also a means of promoting trade both nationally and
internationally.
