The Association for the Inspection and Certification of Food and Supplies (GIMDES) has been officially approved by the Qatar Ministry of Public Health (MOPH). This recognition provides significant opportunities for Turkish companies exporting to Gulf countries by ensuring that GIMDES’s halal certified products are accepted in the Qatar market. The recognition of GIMDES by Qatar by meeting MOPH standards has strengthened its reliability in the field of international halal certification.
Thanks to this approval, GIMDES certified products will be able to reach a wider customer base in the Gulf countries, especially Qatar. This development offers significant advantages for both manufacturers and consumers. While this approval by the Qatar Ministry of Public Health facilitates the entry of GIMDES certified products into the Qatar market for manufacturers, it also increases the export potential to the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. For consumers, this recognition shows that GIMDES certified products meet Qatar’s health and safety standards, reinforcing trust in halal products.
