The KK Mart outlet was recently embroiled in controversy surrounding the sale of pre-packed chicken ham and cheese sandwiches with allegedly misused halal logos.

The Islamic development department (Jakim) has confirmed that the meat used in the sandwiches was certified halal but the sandwiches, along with the company producing them, were not halal-certified.

KK Mart has also suspended all business dealings with the supplier of the pre-packed chicken ham and cheese sandwich, and halted the supply of the product by Shake and Bake Café to all outlets.
