Halal logistics is among the major components for manufacturing halal products.
However, Halal is found to be a unique concept and involves sumptuous guidelines and
implementations, hence it requires a large sum of investment. Moreover, the logistics cost
like in any other supply chain is transferred to the end consumer which in turn increases
the price of the product. There are various studies conducted on Muslim consumer’s
behavior towards Halal products, however, Muslim consumer’s behavioral intention
towards paying the cost for Halal Logistics can still be considered as Novel. Hence, this
research made use of the Theory of Planned behavior and considered the three predictors
of behavior in the theory i.e. Subjective Norms, Attitude, and Perceived behavioral
control along with an additional variable i.e. religiosity to observe the factors that best
predict the consumer’s inclination to purchase Halal Logistics in Pakistan. Data was
collected from 159 respondents from Karachi, Pakistan. Structure Equation Modeling
technique was employed in this research using Smart PLS 3. The outcomes of the
research revealed that the attitude of the consumer towards Halal and their level of
religiosity best predicted the willingness of the consumer to pay for Halal Logistics. It is
anticipated that this research will provide a better comprehension of the consumer’s
behavior towards Halal logistics and it will enable the policymakers to enhance Halal
supply chain practices.
