Introduction: This research was carried out to find out appropriate alternative strategies from halal certification institutions in their contribution to developing Small and Medium Industries (SMI).

 

Method: The method uses quantitative descriptive methods; this research analyzes strategies based on expert judgment surveys. In the process, the collected data is analyzed internally and externally and developed in a matrix using SWOT analysis. Meanwhile, quantitative tools use the IFAS-EFAS approach in the form of rating and weighting questionnaires.

Explains conditions that are in the growth stage and must be developed. This research shows the position of halal certification institutions in the IA quadrant with the "Rapid Growth" strategy, where the S>O value supports the SO strategy.

From the internal side, strengthening institutional operational systems, education, and communication, as well as disseminating information, must be distributed evenly to the community so that the implementation of strategies runs well.
