Well, you also have to note that just because the meat may be halal, it may not be cooked in a halal way in New Zealand's restaurants.

Halal meat production in Pakistan:
Findings
Results show that during 1994-1995 to 2015-2016, annual average growth rates of meat production and export were 3 and 32%, respectively. Based on these growth rates, it was estimated that Pakistan's total meat production and export is projected to be 6,078 thousand tons and $17,477m by 2029-2030. Results regarding the expert opinion survey indicates that Balochistan province has comparative advantage to rare livestock for beef and mutton meat production over rest of the provinces; there is potency for producing chicken meat in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) and Punjab provinces, while Sindh province has almost the same efficiency to produce beef and chicken meat.
Practical implications
Experts were in opinion that high yielding livestock breeds should be introduced to farmers; and comprehensive training programs should be designed for all the stockholders involved in meat production, and processing to exports chains. Therefore, it is suggested that registered and corporate livestock farming can be only solution to fulfill required standards of raw and processed meat business in international markets.
Originality/value
At current, halal meat export is considered as major activity of livestock sector of Pakistan: where, this is one of the pioneer studies exploring potential of halal meat production in various parts of the country, which can not only contribute in national income but support the balance of payments of the country.

Pakistan Halal Authority Aims to Capture The International Market With Exports
Jehangir Nasir
Director-General, PHA, Ministry of Science and Technology, Dr. Muhammad Tariq Masood said:
However, Muslims residing in other countries are more concerned about the availability of Halal products, especially meat. A large number of Pakistanis are living in other countries including Gulf countries, the United States, the United Kingdom as well as European countries which increase the demand for Halal meat substantially.
Since the Gulf countries had lifted their ban on Pakistan poultry imports (imposed in 2004 following bird flu incidents) it is the right time for Pakistan to make its mark in the Gulf countries and around the world.
Dr. Masood said that maintaining a record of the animals that are slaughtered, ensuring the adoption of Halal procedures during slaughtering, and packaging and training of the workers in this field is also very crucial to raise international demand for Pakistani Halal meat.
He said that PHA will place its logo and stamp on the Halal products after checking the quality and standard for a minimal fee of Rs. 5,000 which will be acceptable for export to different countries.
Dr. Tariq Masood informed that PHA is working on introducing a subject related to Halal products at the university level which is needed for promoting awareness about this subject and motivate scholars to conduct research on permissible and nonpermissible foods, non-foods and services scientifically and religiously.
It is unfortunate that the concept of Halal (permissible in religion) is just limited to meat for a common man however it has a bigger scope as it covers medicine, cosmetics, procedures as well as dresses and shoes.
The pilot project of establishing PHA in the federal capital will afterward be replicated by the provinces to educate citizens and utilize Halal products’ trade potential. It is pertinent to mention here that PHA will secure international recognition of the Halal logo to build confidence in the Halal Certification system and Pakistani Halal products abroad.
The authority will also coordinate with national and international organizations for strengthening the Halal sector and promote and encourage the establishment of libraries and laboratories for this purpose.

- Pakistan Halal Authority (PHA) is set to capture international markets to export halal products.
Director-General, PHA, Ministry of Science and Technology, Dr. Muhammad Tariq Masood said:
He was of the view that since Pakistan is an Islamic country, the Muslims residing here take it for granted if the eatables including meat, packed food items, etc are halal and don’t explicitly mention it on the packaging.
However, Muslims residing in other countries are more concerned about the availability of Halal products, especially meat. A large number of Pakistanis are living in other countries including Gulf countries, the United States, the United Kingdom as well as European countries which increase the demand for Halal meat substantially.
Tariq Masood, who is also serving as Joint Scientific Advisor in the ministry, said that Pakistan is the fifth largest dairy producer and supplier of cattle. It has huge potential in livestock, dairy and poultry sectors and could export Halal products worth $5 to $6 billion a year by adopting new measures.
Since the Gulf countries had lifted their ban on Pakistan poultry imports (imposed in 2004 following bird flu incidents) it is the right time for Pakistan to make its mark in the Gulf countries and around the world.

(Karachi) In a major development for Pakistan, Fauji Meat Limited has received approval for exports from the government of Malaysia.
The news was shared by Abdul Razak Dawood, Advisor to Prime Minister on Trade and Investment, via Twitter.
The news comes as a welcome sign for the South Asian economy that is looking to increase its exports amid a widening trade deficit that has accompanied its growth this outgoing fiscal year.
Pakistan reported a trade deficit of $27.5 billion during July-May, with imports crossing $50 billion, and exports lagging behind at $22.6 billion.
“I congratulate Fauji Meat Limited, the largest meat plant in Pakistan, on its approval by the Government of Malaysia for exports,” said Dawood in a tweet post.
He said that this shows international acceptability and demand of Pakistani meat.
“I commend the efforts made by MOC’s Trade & Investment Counsellor Kuala Lampur in this regard and urge him to provide maximum facilitation to our meat exporters to obtain similar approvals,” added the advisor.
Fauji Meat Limited, was incorporated in 2013 as a subsidiary of Fauji Fertilizer Bin Qasim Limited, and falls under the umbrella of Fauji foundation Group.
Fauji Meat limited owns the largest meat processing plant located near Port Qasim, Karachi. The plant spreads across 47 acres of land.
Back in December, The Organic Meat Company Ltd. (TOMCL) was contracted to supply frozen boneless meat to National Food Company (Americana), which is one of the most successful organizations in the Middle East. Americana is considered one of the largest food manufacturing and distributing companies in the region.
TOMCL became the first company from Pakistan to be approved by a multinational food processing company for supply of meat from Pakistan.

Pakistani meat processor The Organic Meat Company Ltd. (TOMCL) announced on Wednesday that a Saudi investment company, which invests in agricultural commodities, has expressed its intention to acquire a 30% stake in TOMCL.
“We hereby inform you that the Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company (SALIC), a Saudi Joint Stock Company owned by the Public Investment Fund, has conveyed an interest in acquiring up to 30% shareholding of the company,” said TOMCL in a filing released to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX).
The company informed that SALIC has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), an audit firm, to conduct due diligence of TOMCL.
The Pakistan meat exporter shared that the proposed investment is currently in a discussion phase and no binding arrangements of any kind have been agreed upon with SALIC.
“The proposed investment will be subject to inter alia an agreement on the commercial terms and conditions and obtaining all applicable internal and external approvals,” it added.
SALIC was established by Royal Decree in 2009 as a Saudi joint-stock company owned by the Public Investment Fund.
“Its doctrine stipulates that all its investment activities should be both inside and outside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in order to achieve a food security strategy by providing food products and stabilizing their prices. This is done through establishing subsidiary companies or through national, regional, and international partnerships,” states information available on its website.
Earlier in May, TOMCL was awarded contracts worth $1 million to export pet food to Europe and the US, becoming the first Pakistani firm to export pet food to these regions. The company has been awarded multi-million dollar contracts for the supply of its products to the Middle East.
As per TOMCL’s financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2022, the company saw its sales grow by 28% over the same period last year to reach Rs3,449 million.
