Abstract: The study aims to propose the business process model (BPM) and the classification rules to recapture more halal value from returned halal chicken meat (HCM) for deciding the appropriate product recovery of returned halal chicken meat. The actors involved in reverse logistics activities of halal chicken meat are quality assurance staff, cold storage staff, collection centre staff, management of the slaughtering company, the truck driver of the logistics service provider (transporter), and the customer. The ranking of the class product recovery of returned halal chicken meat obtained consecutively are feed products (56.7%), disposal (33.4%), halal food products (8.8%) and repacking (1.1%). The three quality attributes of halal chicken meat that most affect the decision of product recovery option are odour (putrid), handling of halal product, and visual (physical) appearance. The decision tree generates 11 classification rules to support management in deciding the best product recovery of returned halal chicken meat.
