    Abstract

    The implementation of halal certification in Muslim-owned dining establishments in Malaysia faces various obstacles. This research aimed to analyze and investigate these challenges. The study used the DEMATEL approach with the integrated single-valued neutrosophic normalized weighted Bonferroni mean (SVNNWBM) to identify and understand the interrelationships among the obstacles. Three groups comprising academicians, industry professionals, and Muslim owner-restaurant representatives provided their perspectives. The findings highlighted three key obstacles hindering the acceptance and implementation of halal certification: customer perception, halal perception, and inadequate awareness. Fiscal constraints, inadequate awareness, and halal perception were significant barriers in Malaysia's restaurant sector. These obstacles were categorized as causal factors, generating additional barriers in the industry. By identifying these challenges, effective strategies can be developed to overcome them and improve the adoption of halal certification. This research provides valuable insights for policymakers, restaurant owners, and other stakeholders, enabling them to understand the obstacles better and develop targeted interventions. Employing the integrated SVNNWBM-DEMATEL approach and incorporating perspectives from experts in academia, industry, and Muslim owner-restaurant representatives ensures a comprehensive analysis of the obstacles faced in halal certification implementation.
