Abstract


MSME actors in the West Kalimantan region as of December 2022 have reached 196,656 units, consisting of 168,623 micro business units, 26,328 small business units, and 1,705 medium business units capable of driving West Kalimantan's economic growth. The constraints experienced by MSMEs include lack of financing, suboptimal product marketing, not having NPWP and NIB, and not yet halal certified as one of the requirements for exporting, and increasing the level of consumer confidence. Sambas is a regency that has the third highest number of MSMEs in West Kalimantan, with 18,290 business units.  Judging from ptsp.halal data where the progress of businesses that have halal certificates in West Kalimantan alone is less than 1%, of course it has an impact on MSMEs in Sambas Regency, of course there are also still few who have halal certificates. Research objectives: 1) knowing the implementation of the SEHATI Programme in Sambas Regency. 2) explain the supporting and inhibiting factors for the growth of halal-certified micro and small enterprises (MSEs) through the SEHATI programme. The research method uses a qualitative method by combining two approaches, namely: Normative theological approach (syar'i) and sociological approach. The results showed that the implementation of the SEHATI Programme in Sambas Regency is a strategic initiative designed to accelerate the growth and competitiveness of micro and small enterprises (MSEs) through a simple and free self-declare mechanism. However, there are still significant barriers such as limited resources, lack of information on the certification process, and suboptimal support from the government and assisting institutions. Overcoming these barriers requires improved infrastructure, intensive education and counselling programmes, and better technical support and mentoring for MSEs.
