Three years ago the Halal Certification Agency of BH was formed, and in the meantime it has made it among the world’s top five agencies of this type (out of 180) and one of the leading in Europe.

The halal industry is believed to have much potential globally, and BH aims for a leading position. The Agency’s director Nermin Hadzic says the most important halal producers in the country opted for certification three years ago.

A group of halal certificate holders in BH will be formed with the Chamber of Foreign Trade (VTK) within the next 15 days, a representative of the Halal Europe Association has announced, in an effort to further the halal business in BH.

The Agency has certified 42 enterprises and more than 1,500 products so far from the area of BH, Croatia and Serbia.
