Lockdowns, movement restrictions, social distancing, suspension of public gatherings at a certain number, and other measures have been implemented by governments and world leaders to lessen the loss of life and health. Despite being necessary, these measures have caused a massive economic crisis that has wreaked havoc on businesses and industries, including the halal industry. Due to restrictions, restaurants, for instance, are not permitted to offer dine-in service. Spite of the difficulties, the COVID-19 outbreak has prompted numerous restaurants to seek alternate solutions and develop innovative in-house Online Food Delivery (OFD) services, while others have established third-party OFD service providers and individuals have become runners.The purpose of this study is to look into the emergence of OFD services in delivering halal foodacross Brunei Darussalam during COVID-19 outbreak. The researchers refer to relevant publications in this area to discuss the online halal food delivery during COVID-19.
