HICCIP was founded on March 16, 2013 and was formally registered to Securities and Exchange Commission on June 25, 2013 as a non-stock/ non-profit organization following a nationwide operation composed of Muslim Scholars, Professionals and Businessmen.
By the same year, HICCIP received its first accreditation from the Philippine Government through National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF) as a duly Accredited certifying body officially engaged in the classification and certification of certain local products as HALAL (Lawful for Muslim consumption according to the Shariah Law).
Over the years, HICCIP established itself as a credible international certification body by garnering recognitions from international bodies such as JAKIM (malaysia), MUIS (Singapore), and CICOT (Thailand). It continues to establish partnership with different stakeholders that includes government and non government institutions accross the world.
Despite being a full Muslim organization drived by the purpose of serving the Ummah for the sake of ALLAH SWT, HICCIP's program and services abides to non-discrimantory principles and maintains an open policy to individuals and companies, Muslim and non-Muslim consumers alike to be able to fulfill its avowed goals for the halal industry.
