WFM
Whole Foods Market (Amazon subsidiary; no WFM listing)
Is WFM Halal?
Amazon completed Whole Foods Market's acquisition in August 2017 and WFM was delisted; the grocery, alcohol and sourcing analysis remains qualitative without current standalone ratios.
What You Should Know
WFM is a preserved Whole Foods Market route. Amazon completed the acquisition on August 28, 2017, so Whole Foods is an Amazon subsidiary rather than a current standalone public security. The historical natural-food grocery analysis is retained, including beer, wine, tap rooms, non-halal products and sourcing questions; no current standalone WFM quantitative screen is applicable.
⚠️ Concerns
- •WFM was delisted after Amazon's acquisition
- •Beer, wine, tap rooms and mixed product categories
- •Non-halal food and sourcing questions
- •WFM is a preserved Amazon-acquisition alias; the URL is unchanged

Business-activity disclosure
Whole Foods historically operated natural and organic grocery stores. Grocery retail is generally permissible in principle, while beer, wine, tap rooms and mixed product categories remain qualitative concerns; WFM is no longer publicly investable.
Limitation: No current standalone WFM balance sheet, revenue statement or public-market price exists for a reproducible quantitative screen.
Purification
No current standalone WFM issuer income is available for a purification calculation.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Amazon completed the Whole Foods Market acquisition on August 28, 2017; WFM is not a current standalone public security.
- The historical standalone filing is not substituted into a current screen, and Amazon or Whole Foods segment figures are not used as WFM figures.
- The route and its natural-food, alcohol, non-halal product and sourcing analysis are preserved.
This is a reproducible financial screen, not a fatwa. A failed total-assets screen can coexist with a pass under a market-cap methodology. ZakatInvest keeps the qualitative assessment separate so numerical thresholds do not erase material context.
