Innovation and strategic marketing have been identified in many literatures as the source for performance growth of companies. With Malaysia’s position as one of the leaders in the global halal industry, Malaysia halal companies are pressed to continue their market presence and growth especially with the surge of production cost and intensifying competition. However, the performance of Malaysia halal F&B companies is impeded by issues surrounding innovation and marketing such as low level of innovation, competitiveness and commercialisation. In understanding these problems, the study focused on the relationship between innovation and strategic marketing with regards to companies’ performance of the Malaysia halal F&B companies which will be moderated by market turbulence. In this research, the sampling consists of 386 Malaysian companies from the halal F&B industry. In order to determine the interrelation of the variables, a Pearson’s bivariate correlation analysis was conducted using the data collected in this study. This is followed by multiple regressions analysis, which was used to test the level of influence of the independent variables and companies’ performance. The first research objective is to study the relationship between innovation dimensions and performance. The second research objective is to study the relationship between strategic marketing dimensions (Independent Variable) and company’s performance. Finally, for the third research objective, a hierarchical multiple regression was conducted to examine the moderating effects of market turbulence on the relationship between independent variables (innovation type, innovation capability, innovation challenges, innovation drivers and strategic marketing) and dependent variable (companies’ performance). From the findings, it can be concluded that Malaysian companies especially the SMEs emphasize on technological type innovation to ensure their performance in the market. The companies are leveraging on their internal capabilities such as human resource talents, and technology, to venture in various innovation type as a strategic tool for sustainable growth. The study also highlighted on the stressed given by Malaysia halal F&B companies on operational marketing and strategic marketing drivers in ensuring the growth of their business activities performance.
