This accreditation is a testament to our commitment towards quality, inclusivity, and respect for cultural values.
Leejay Evangelista, Chairman of the Environment, Social & Governance Committee at the Corporate Governance Division, shares, “Halal certification was a natural response on how Personal Collection is committed to embracing different cultures, traditions, and beliefs. Recognizing our presence across diverse markets, we wanted to make sure our products are accessible to everyone. Achieving this certification was a significant milestone for us, showcasing our dedication to enhancing product quality while also expanding their reach. This is our way of communicating that we love and respect diverse cultures wherever we operate, underscoring our value of inclusivity not only in the Philippines but also in Malaysia, where we launched our first international branch.”
Understanding Halal Certification
Halal, an Arabic word meaning “permissible,” is a term that transcends food to include products and services conforming to Islamic law as outlined in the Quran. The Halal certification ensures that products are free from any components or ingredients forbidden in Islam. This rigorous certification process involves meticulous inspection and verification by accredited agencies, ensuring that the products meet the stringent dietary standards required for Halal compliance.
