    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    If the shop belongs to a Muslim and he has assured you of halal, then you should not have any doubt merely on the basis of suspicion. You may consume it. However, if you have strong doubts then it is better to confirm it.

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
