Keywords:
Pesantren Economy, Halal Products, Sharia EconomyAbstract
The growth of Indonesia’s halal industry requires a strong supporting ecosystem to compete globally. Bank Indonesia (BI), through the Pesantren Business Economy Association (Hebitren), promotes pesantrens as centres for halal economic development. This article outlines Hebitren’s profile, the process of ecosystem strengthening, and the program’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges. It explains BI’s role in advancing the halal sector through pesantren involvement and offers practical insights into pesantren contributions as halal economic agents. The findings provide reference points for policymakers, academics, and industry actors in formulating national halal development strategies. Ultimately, Hebitren is expected to enhance pesantren economic independence, expand halal market access, and reinforce Indonesia’s position in the global halal industry.References
