The halal industry has become one of the main economic markets for world market growth. The need for halal in many industry segments has sustained the halal ecosystem, including the halal supply chain of products and services. Aside from halal food and beverages, halal pharmaceuticals also have a high demand for halal products and are marketed by Muslims worldwide. With the delicate, unique, and complex characteristics and processes of halal pharmaceuticals, a particular industry must take part in all requirements and measures throughout its supply chain. Thus, this research emphasized the role of halal warehouses as part of the essential logistics facilities for storing halal pharmaceuticals. Many risks will arise regarding the status of halal pharmaceuticals if the products are kept, stored, and handled in a manner underlined by the competent authority. Hence, this research focuses on discovering and ascertaining the industry implementation of halal requirements in warehouse management. This qualitative case study research was based on the data collected through interviews with the informants from the Warehouse Department of Pharmaniaga Lifescience (PLS). The research results revealed the PLS warehouse process flow, their halal implementation in warehouse management, and their perception of the importance of halal warehouse practice for halal pharmaceutical products. This could offer significant insight to the manufacturers, patients, users, researchers, or academicians. © 2023, Global Journal Al-Thaqafah. All Rights Reserved.
