Abstract: Indonesia is the most populated Muslim country in the world. The need
for halal product is important for Muslims. Halal in Arabic means “allowed” or the
halal product has met the requirements laid down by the sharia law. Logistics plays
a key role in protecting halal status from transporting, distributing and
warehousing. Halal can be used as a safe handling reference. PT YCH Indonesia
has the principle to guarantee the halal status from handling until reaching the
customers. In running their business, PT YCH Indonesia implements and uses ISO
9001-2008. In this study, we found some similarities between halal and ISO 9001-
2008. These similarities are important because the company which runs their
businesses with both halal and ISO has seen an increase in their order. The authors
expect that this study can be used as a benchmarking because the halal process is
quite successful in logistics companies.

Introduction
Indonesia is the most populated Muslims country in the world. Indonesia
has 255 million people of which 87.2 percent, or 207.2 million, are
Muslims, according to National Statistics Office (Demografi and Statistik,
2010). Indonesia has a clear demographic appeal for halal products. The
needs of many Muslim population in Indonesia for halal products must be
noted. In reality, there are still many products circulating in the community
which are yet guaranteed halal. Thus, it has become a demand that the
logistics sector should adjust to the customer needs and more importantly,
the consumer demands for the integrity of halal products. In distributing
their products, companies use logistics services. Thus, logistics is very
important in a company’s activities (Edi, 2016).
The concept of halal is derived from Holy Al-Quran which means allowed,
permitted and lawful (Wahab and Bhd, 2004). This concept is related to the
