Is meat from GB 8013 halal?

The code shows which plant slaughtered, cut or packed the meat, not whether it is halal. Look for a halal logo from a named certifier, such as HMC or HFA, or ask the brand which certifier approves the product. More in halal meat codes.

What this approval means for halal

A cold store keeps chilled or frozen products. It does not cut, prepare or slaughter, so its approval says nothing about how the meat was produced.

A cutting plant cuts carcasses into joints and portions. It does not slaughter animals, so the meat arrives from a slaughterhouse and the halal question moves upstream: where the meat came from, and whether halal meat is kept apart from non-halal meat while it is cut.

A slaughterhouse approval means animals are killed and dressed here. This is the step where halal is decided: how the animal is slaughtered, whether it is stunned first, who performs the slaughter and which certifier monitors it.

What to ask before you rely on it

  • Are halal-certified products stored separately and labelled?
  • Which slaughterhouses supply this plant, and are they halal certified?
  • Is halal meat cut on separate lines or at separate times from non-halal meat?
  • Is the slaughter here halal certified, and by which body?
  • Are animals stunned before slaughter, and does your certifier accept that?
  • Are halal and non-halal animals kept apart?

Ask the brand on the pack, or the halal certifier named on it. Plants rarely publish this, so a written answer from the brand is the best evidence.
