Cosmax Group's health functional food Original Development Manufacturing (ODM) company, Cosmax Bio, has received halal certification and is expanding its efforts to penetrate the Muslim markets in Southeast Asia and the Middle East.
Cosmax Bio announced on the 28th that its Shanghai factory in China has received the 'Halal Indonesia' certification from the Halal Product Assurance Agency (BPJPH) of Indonesia. The Shanghai factory underwent evaluations of overall production processes, including the cleanliness of the manufacturing process and the halal suitability of product ingredients, for this certification. It registered 12 items in four formulations—liquid, jelly, tablet, and powder—suitable for the Indonesian Muslim market. In preparation for exports to the Malaysian market, where 70% of the population is Muslim, it also obtained the JAKIM halal certification.
Cosmax Bio plans to strengthen its penetration into Muslim markets in Southeast Asia and the Middle East through this certification. Indonesia, with a Muslim population exceeding 200 million, is witnessing rapid growth in the global halal market. The domestic Jecheon factory has already received halal certification from the Korea Muslim Federation (KMF). Kim Cheol-hee, CEO of Cosmax Bio, stated, “With this certification, the Shanghai factory has gained the competitiveness to export K-health functional foods not only within China but also to the Southeast Asian and Middle Eastern Muslim markets.”
