HALAL
While we believe the meaning of Halal expands far beyond a label on a packet, we understand that when your food is involved you need some concrete assurance too, and we’re always happy to go the extra mile to provide you with this.
All of our lamb meat is stamped GB 4451 and tailored to meet your personal fiqh requirements. We’re of the viewpoint that you can never share too much knowledge. We can apply any Halal fiqh requirements to your meat order and answer any questions that you might have about our processes, including what we do and why we do it. We also facilitate visits to provide extra reassurance. Learn about our Halal research work here.
The majority of our customers do not require Halal certification. They know who we are, how we operate and how we are open to visitors. However we have the ability to work with any certifier the market demands. We work closely with both the Halal Monitoring Committee (HMC) and Halal Food Authority (HFA) to ensure that whatever additional assurance you’re looking for, we can provide it.
By doing this, we feel we’re better equipping you with the information you need to make the food choices that are right for you. It all comes back to our ethos that trust is a must.
RIBA-FREE
EQL does not have any riba in our business and this means that our business is not only ethical, but has a solid financial base too. Customers are reassured that their money is not being used to perpetuate riba and in fact contributes to riba-free initiatives. Learn more in our blog here.
Being able to give sadaqah, or charity, is a blessing. We understand the importance of building strong and supportive local communities, and we appreciate the incredible work put in by so many organisations to improve the lives of thousands of people every single year, not only in the UK but around the world.
We established Euro Quality Foundation (UK Charities Commission registration number 1119242) to distribute Zakah, Lillah and Riba for the development of society locally and around the world.
We endeavour to be open and community-focused in everything we do and our onsite Masjid, Craven Arms Islamic Centre, is open to everyone within the Shropshire community and beyond.
