Abstract

The research studies the effect of Integrated Supply Chain (SCI) and Halal Supply Chain Integrity (HSCI) on cosmetics SMEs in Pakistan. Tap of 25 SMEs working in diverse and leading cities in Pakistan, including Karachi, Hyderabad, Lahore, and Islamabad, was made. To test the hypotheses that the latent variables (LVs) of the construct are linked, the sample in this research used a structured equation model (SEM) with Smart PLS. Results show that SCI and commitment to halal improve operational efficiency and customer confidence and suggest implications to managers considering increasing competitiveness in Pakistan's halal cosmetics market.
