Halal, Food, Opportunity, Challenge, SWOTAbstract
With all the potential that Indonesia has, the halal industry should be optimised to build the economy and improve people's lives. This study aims to look further at the opportunities and challenges of Indonesia's halal food and beverage industry. This study uses a descriptive-qualitative method with a phenomenological approach and SWOT analysis techniques. The results showed that Indonesia has excellent food and beverage industry opportunities. For example, Indonesia has seen high growth in the number of Muslims. The target market in Indonesia is enormous, public awareness of consuming halal food continues to increase, and technology development is rapid. The existence of e-commerce and media continues to grow. In terms of financing, there are many options for alternative financing platforms and collaboration opportunities with Islamic banking and financial institutions. However, this opportunity has not been fully utilised. Indonesia still has to face various challenges from various sides, such as limited access to international markets, a lack of research on market movements, and a low utilisation of information technology to develop this industry. Meanwhile, the forms of policies from the central and regional governments are still not aligned, and the bureaucracy for inter-sectoral cooperation is still relatively small. By looking at the results of the positioning analysis through the SWOT technique, it is recommended that the Indonesian halal food industry implement a growth strategy through horizontal integration. In this position, the Indonesian halal food industry has an excellent opportunity to grow by developing the halal food and beverage industry.
