Selling Haram meat to non-muslims - would like to start frenchise restaurant business that will have all haram meat

Question

As salam-o-alaikum I have been living in USA and would like to start frenchise restaurant business that will have all haram meat. Will it be permissible to sell and earn money by selling the haram meat. Please let me know.

Answer

It is not permissible to sell Haraam meat even to non-Muslims. The income from the sales of Haraam meat will be Haraam.

It is, therefore, not permissible to enter into such a franchise.
