Perak has 148 halal contract manufacturing plants. The full list is useful for research, but it does not tell you who carries the most experience.
This list orders them on one measure: how many distinct brands have been certified at that plant.

138 further contract plants in Perak hold a JAKIM record. The complete list is set out in our full Perak listing.
A state with a broad mix
Unlike Penang's cosmetics cluster or Selangor's food density, Perak's top ten spans categories — food, beverage, skincare and nutraceuticals all appear.
For a brand based in northern or central Malaysia that variety is useful: plants for different product ranges can sit within an hour's drive of each other.
Reading this list
The brand count includes a factory's own brands. For long-established food plants, some of those are their own products.
How this list was built
Every factory here was taken from JAKIM's own Halal Directory, captured on 5 August 2026. Nothing was added by invitation, payment or submission.
- Contract manufacturing only. The factory must hold JAKIM's OEM (pengilangan kontrak) category. Plants that only make their own products are out of scope.
- Classified by what they actually make. A factory counts as belonging to this category when at least five of its certified products fall inside it, and those make up at least 40% of its certified range.
- Ranked on published records, not on our judgement of quality.
We classify by certified product names rather than by JAKIM's category code on purpose. The code is broad: filtering on "cosmetics & personal care" alone returns an edible-oils plant whose certified list is margarine and antibacterial soap. Reading the product names avoids that.
What this list cannot tell you
- Factories producing only under a client's certificate are invisible here. 221 of Malaysia's halal contract plants hold the OEM category and no product certificates of their own. They may be excellent; they simply have nothing for this method to count.
- "Brands certified" includes a factory's own brands. For a contract manufacturer most of those names are clients. For a large consumer-goods company, many will be its own labels. Read the number as certification breadth, not as a client list.
- Certification is not capability. JAKIM records say a product met the halal standard. They say nothing about capacity, minimum order quantity, lead time, price or quality systems.
