COCA-COLA Malaysia and QSR Brands Bhd are among the five Malaysian-based companies actively pursuing deals to provide halal-certified products and services at the upcoming Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
The Coca-Cola Co, a worldwide partner of the Olympic Games, is expected to offer halal versions of the carbonated drink through its local distributor. QSR, the local operator for the Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) and Pizza Hut chain, plans to prepare halal meals at the Olympic Village.
The two food and beverage (F&B) giants join three other companies — Nippon Express (M) Sdn Bhd, Brahim’s Holdings Bhd and BGR Foodservice Sdn Bhd — who are currently in talks with Japanese industry representatives on possible halal arrangements for the world’s biggest sporting event.
