The small and medium scale firms dominated the Malaysian’s food industry in term of business development by representing more than 80% of the total number of establishments in the processed food segment in Malaysia.

This research aims to study the current scenario of Total Quality Management (TQM), Lean Manufacturing (LM), Environmental Management System (EMS), and Islamic Manufacturing Practice (IMP) in the Malaysian food industry. This research is based on the data obtained from the questionnaire distributed to the SMEs list provided by SME Corp Malaysia, companies listed under Makanan Selamat Tanggungjawab Industri (MeSTI), or the "Food Safety is the Responsibility of the Industry", and the companies who participated in the Selangor International Expo 2016.

The results of the study also had suggested that the food organization to implement to improve their quality of the product. It is hoped that the study can contribute to the improvement of the quality, waste and environment management system in the Halal food system which was designed to encourage the industry to practice activities that could benefit the industry.
