Next step Frive, the UK meal-prep delivery company, says all its meals use Halal-suitable ingredients and that it does not handle pork or alcohol on its premises. It doesn't name a certifier, so ask Frive which body certifies its meat if you need that. How to verify

Why this ruling

Frive is a UK meal-prep company that cooks and delivers ready-made meals. Its FAQ gives a two-part Halal answer.

Halal-suitable ingredients, no pork or alcohol

Frive says: "Yes, all our meals use halal-suitable ingredients. We do not handle pork or alcohol on our premises."[1] A kitchen with neither removes the usual cross-contamination questions.

What it doesn't say

"Halal-suitable" is Frive's own term, and the FAQ doesn't name a certification body for the meat. If you need the certifier, or whether the meat is stunned, ask Frive directly. For another UK meal-prep company, see Simmer Eats.

Where you'll find it

  • Ready-made meal-prep boxes delivered in the UK
  • Meals cooked twice a week, heated at home

Frequently asked questions

Is Frive Halal?
Frive says all its meals use Halal-suitable ingredients and that it does not handle pork or alcohol on its premises. It doesn't name a certifier for its meat.
Does Frive use pork or alcohol?
No. Frive's FAQ says: 'We do not handle pork or alcohol on our premises.'

Scholarly view

A kitchen with no pork and no alcohol removes the usual cross-contamination worries. What remains is the meat itself: 'Halal-suitable' is the company's description, and a named certifier is what tells you the slaughter standard. Ask Frive for it if that matters to you.
