INSIGHTS HALAL SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT AT INDONESIA NUSANTARA FISHERY PORT

Abstract

This research was conducted at the Nusantara Fisheries Port (PPN) with a focus on examining the halal supply chain activities among fishers and identifying potential fraudulent practices in fishing operations. Employing a qualitative approach and source triangulation, the study aims to address these issues comprehensively. It sheds light on various stages of the halal supply chain, including fishers’ departure preparations, fish unloading processes at the pier, price determination, and product delivery to factories. Findings reveal prevalent fraudulent activities within fishers' operations leading to the compromised halal status of products. Common fraudulent practices are observed in administrative procedures from departure to docking, often normalized among fishers. Moreover, discrepancies in fish pricing at the port frequently occur due to baseless manipulations by some agents or suppliers.
