Hilton
Manila Newport World Resorts has been officially certified
for both Halal Food and Halal Kitchen by Prime Certification and
Inspection Asia Pacific Inc, becoming the first hotel in Metro Manila to attain
dual Halal certifications under the Philippine National Halal
Certification Scheme.
This milestone enables the hotel to offer fully Halal-certified daily dining, private events, and catering services, providing a trusted option for Muslim travelers, families, and corporate or diplomatic event organizers seeking verified Halal hospitality in the Philippines.
The certifications,
issued by the only Halal certification body accredited by the Department of
Trade and Industry – Philippine Accreditation Bureau (DTI-PAB), affirm Hilton
Manila Newport World Resort’s compliance with both the Philippine National
Halal Certification Scheme of 2018 (for food) and Philippine National Standard
PNS 2067:2008 (for kitchen operations). This achievement underscores Hilton
Manila Newport World Resort’s strong commitment to inclusive hospitality and
food safety, ensuring that its culinary operations meet the highest standards
of Halal integrity across sourcing, preparation, and kitchen practices.
“At Hilton, we are
committed to meeting the evolving needs of modern travelers,” said Gagan
Talwar, General Manager of Hilton Manila Newport World Resorts. “This
certification reflects our dedication to inclusive hospitality and provides
peace of mind for guests who value Halal integrity in their dining experiences.”
The hotel’s all-day
dining restaurant Kusina Sea Kitchens now features a dedicated Halal buffet
section serving a vibrant and flavorful spread of Indonesian and
Malaysian specialties prepared in a Halal-certified kitchen.
The hotel’s
certification also extends to meetings, weddings, and catered events, allowing
organizers to offer Halal-compliant menus with the same assurance of quality
and safety.
The hotel’s
certification supports the Philippines’ national effort to position itself as a Halal-friendly
destination, aligning with the country’s push to attract travelers from
Muslim-majority countries and enhance its appeal in the regional Halal tourism
market.
A formal certification
ceremony was held on July 11, 2025, attended by Hilton Manila Newport World
Resorts leadership and representatives from Prime Certification and Inspection
Asia Pacific Inc., including Dr. Mary Jane Alvero-Al Mahdi, Group
CEO, Raymond Alido, and Saniya Macatoman.
