Today, the AnsarComp team had the opportunity to participate in a strategic online discussion with Maybank Islamic Bank, focusing on the development of their Halal Decision Centre and the continuous expansion of their halal e-commerce platform, Salam Market.
The discussion provided valuable insights into Maybank’s direction in building a more comprehensive and inclusive halal ecosystem, especially for empowering Malaysia’s halal-focused SMEs.
Shared Vision Between AnsarComp & Maybank Islamic
What made this engagement particularly meaningful was the strong alignment in vision between both organisations. While Maybank aims to become a leading driver of a holistic halal ecosystem—beyond financial support, extending into market connectivity, supply chain strengthening, and compliance—AnsarComp brings in deep expertise in:
- Regulatory Approvals & Licensing across all Malaysian authorities
- Import and Export Compliance Management
- Importer of Record (IOR) and Exporter of Record (EOR) services
- Technical and compliance support for international brands entering Malaysia’s regulated market
This synergy opens pathways for businesses to access the halal market more efficiently, safely, and in full compliance with Malaysian regulatory requirements.
Cross-Border Collaboration Opportunities
One of the key highlights shared by Maybank was their plan to expand the halal ecosystem into major global markets such as China and Indonesia.
This expansion presents significant opportunities for halal businesses seeking international growth, where regulatory and compliance barriers often pose major challenges.
AnsarComp sees strong potential in supporting Maybank through:
- International compliance and regulatory advisory
- Cross-border approval coordination
- Global market access guidance
- IOR/EOR solutions that streamline cross-border logistics for halal products
Such collaboration can strengthen Malaysia’s position as a global reference point for halal—not only in certification, but also in technical compliance and regulatory governance.
Moving Forward Together
AnsarComp is truly encouraged by this engagement and believes that a long-term collaboration with Maybank Islamic will serve as a catalyst for the growth of Malaysia’s halal industry.
We are committed to supporting initiatives that elevate Malaysia as a leading global halal hub, backed by proper compliance, technical expertise, and integrated logistics solutions.
