Poultry and meat that has been designated as “Halal” refers to food that is prepared according to Islamic law, and therefore can be part of Muslim food choices. Most Halal foods are clearly labelled as such, or you can ask your meat supplier to verify the source.
Most of the Halal chicken sold at BFS is under the Sadia brand, the largest exporter of Halal frozen chicken and beef from Brazil.
The Rotisserie Chicken sold at Solomon’s Fresh Market locations and Solomon’s SuperCentre in Nassau are all Halal products. Ask your sales rep or send us an email

What does HALAL mean?
The facility processing the poultry or meat must be certified by a Muslim organisation, with proof of payment and regular audits. A person of the Muslim faith must supervise the slaughtering process, commencing with a Muslim prayer. Otherwise, the production of commercial poultry, meat and most other products is the same as non-Halal foods.
