Malaysia's role as a global leader for the Halal economy is one of the nations. At present, young entrepreneurs are increasingly active in the halal food sector because of Malaysia's reward initiatives, continued supports and numerous strategies or programs. Entrepreneurship is a smart choice for young adults to raise their wealth in comparison to the younger generation today. However, it is not easy for young entrepreneurs to engage in halal food labelling because they face various barriers stopping their involvement. This research was thus carried out to explore youth entrepreneurs' curiosity in Sarawak's markings for halal foodstuffs, as it is difficult for them to receive JAKIM's halal certificate. In addition, the young contractor faces a few problems as a Halal entrepreneur. The concern is that they lack expertise, skills, and funding to get their company underway. The survey was collected in a variety of districts in Sarawak and is 52 respondents (Bintulu, Kuching, Serian, Sibu). The goal of this study was to define the youth entrepreneur's level of involvement in halal food products. A questionnaire system for the gathering of data was used and the other method was interviewed – questions were answered in person, by email or by telephone. The outcome seems that young entrepreneurs engage strongly in the marking of halal food items in Sarawak. For the policymaker to make the process simpler for the young entrepreneur to apply a halal certification, the importance of this study is to be a guide since the complicated method prohibits the entrepreneur from being given a halal mark for their foodstuffs. Then this study will make the youth entrepreneur more conscious that even the process is difficult to get the halal mark because it will enhance economic development in the region.
