Abstract: Abstract Global demand for Halal products is growing at the same time as Halal logistics service providers are expanding. The global Halal logistics market is predicted to increase from USD 321.2 billion in 2023 to USD 528.2 billion by the end of 2033. The market for halal food is now valued at USD 1.4 trillion globally as of 2018 and is expected to grow by 46% to USD 2.6 trillion by 2023. The term “halal product” refers to a variety of goods, including raw materials, semi-finished goods, finished goods, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. It is not just restricted to food. Not just Islamic nations in the Middle East and Asia, but also Western nations including the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe, are driving up demand for halal products and Halal logistics providers. Halal logistics ensure the status of Halal product remains as Halal during the movement from one point to another point along the supply chain process. This article aims to build on the current understanding and enhance apprehend of the Halal logistics definition. We also explore the Halal logistics provider roles and activities, past and current studies on Halal logistics area, as well as exploring a new development of technology in Halal logistics and supply chain. The study underwrites the existing literature on Halal logistics and supply chain in four main areas. Firstly, it presents the notion of Halal logistics and supply chain. Secondly, it highlights the key attributes of Halal logistics activities and the role of Halal logistics service provider. Thirdly, it highlights the key technology development with regard to Halal logistics, especially for cross-border trade activities. And finally, this paper contributes to the existing literature by offering a new area for future researcher to explore in relation to technology adoption and service quality. One single case study from air freight perspective is presented. To conclude, this study will fill up current gap that looks into relationship between Halal and technology.
