About us

Our name is our promise.

Hanco Tayyib is a family company. Hanco comes from the family names Hannah and Nicole. Tayyib means pure and wholesome. It comes from halalan tayyiban, "lawful and good".

We do not only do what is allowed (halal). We also do what is pure, wholesome and good for the body and the earth. That is the standard we work to.

We are a halal meat exporter based in Kenya. We source grass-fed beef, goat and lamb from smallholder farmers, process it in our own Tayyib-certified abattoirs, and ship it chilled or frozen to buyers across the Gulf.

Halal is how we slaughter. Pure and wholesome is how we raise.

Our standard

The Tayyib Zabihah standards.

Halal is not a label we buy. It is a standard we hold ourselves to, cut by cut.

1

Healthy animal

No sick, stressed or abused animals.

2

Merciful handling

No beating. No animal sees another being slaughtered.

3

True Zabihah

Slaughtered by a practising Muslim, facing the Qibla, with a sharp knife — the Tasmiyah recited for each animal individually, never an audio recording.

4

Pure processing

Uncontaminated. Zero harmful chemicals. Hygiene is paramount.

5

Cold chain

Immediate cold-chain processing, from slaughter to shipment.

6

Full traceability

Trace your meat back to the farm — and the specific slaughterman.

7

Supply-chain control

Our own Tayyib-certified abattoirs — not meat sourced from unknown slaughterhouses.

Traceability

Every cut, traced to its farm.

Every animal is tagged and recorded. The record stays with the meat from the farm, through our abattoir, to the consignment you receive.

We can tell you the farm, the abattoir and the slaughterman behind every cut. Buy from us, and you can show your customers exactly where their meat began.

Compliance

Halal we can prove.

We operate a halal-only facility. We do not handle pork or any non-halal product. Our slaughter follows Islamic requirements, and we work to Gulf standards.

  • Halal certification
  • GSO standards for slaughter and meat
  • HACCP and ISO 22000 food safety
  • Health certificate and certificate of origin
  • Sealed, cold-chain shipping
