Zug: – HAQQ, an ethics-first blockchain ecosystem based on Islamic values, has announced a strategic partnership with GoMeat, the first-ever home delivery service powered by decentralized technologies.

The two companies aim to streamline the availability of halal meat and food across the United States. This will include broadening the network of stores and halal restaurants on the GoMeat app so the platform’s users have easier access to diverse halal food options.

The partnership brings a series of planned enhancements to the GoMeat platform: leveraging HAQQ’s expertise and advanced technologies, it will add new features and functionalities to make the GoMeat app more intuitive and responsive. The first phase includes the integration of the HAQQ wallet, which will give merchants and consumers the option to make and receive crypto payments, adding to the flexibility. The extensive list of payment options will feature HAQQ’s native currency, Islamic Coin ($ISLM). GoMeat is one of the first ordering & home delivery services in the world to accept orders using its own GoMeat token ($GOMT).

Following the collaboration, GoMeat will develop its halal meat and food authentication and supply chain solution on Haqq Network providing transparency and traceability empowering billions of consumers worldwide. The blockchain based solution will also integrate AI-driven features for user personalization, demand forecasting for stores, and improved supply chain management. The AI integration will be supported by HAQQ’s partner SingularityNET: a leader in decentralized AI. The joint efforts include regional customization of blockchain services to meet the unique demands of diverse American communities, minimizing user friction and maximizing usability.

“Focusing on how we could benefit the community was key to our partnership with GoMeat. We are committed to giving back: by reacting to people’s needs, and supporting local events,” says Mohammed AlKaff AlHashmi, HAQQ Co-founder. “We offer frequent promotional campaigns to our customers from across communities in the USA to take advantage of the lowest halal meat and food prices as available on our app with the convenience of home delivery.  Our collaborations with Islamic Centers across the USA ensures each GoMeat app signup will result in a donation of $1 directly for community needs”.

“This partnership is an important milestone for the US specialty food sector, and Web3 on the whole. By bringing in blockchain and AI technologies, HAQQ and GoMeat will enhance the authentication and transparency of halal meat products in the region and boost the universal adoption of advanced technologies — all while fostering a sense of community”, added GoMeat Co-Founder Waqas Siddiqi.
