The purpose of this research is to find out about how supply chain can be managed during uncertainty, specifically with the recent Covid-19 pandemic. The Halal Food Supply Chain (HFSC) management before and during the pandemic was analysed. Unfortunately, the Covid-19 pandemic has affected most business in the world negatively, no exception to the HFSC. An HFSC manager is expected to meet the requirements and guidelines of a robust HFSC without neglecting the measures taken to comply with the Covid-19 regulations, not to mention the influences of various stakeholders that could impact the performance of the management throughout the process. A qualitative case study was utilised to collect data from a manager of a halal food organisation located in Hull, UK. Primary data was collected through interview with the participant, which then be analysed with structural coding and discussed descriptively with the thematic analysis. The result showed that the halal food business sourced products domestically and internationally until the Covid-19 outbreak and Brexit happened, so they had to find different suppliers inside the country and moved from main suppliers into middlemen wholesalers.
