Does "halal" imply anything about animals being treated humanely in the course of producing the product, or that the facility was blessed by an imam ?

@DrWatson Halal linguistically mean that something is not prohibited. But in the context of food, it is usually used to mean something doesn't contain pork or that the animal was slaughtered, certain way (cutting their vein) with a sharp knife.. I personally would argue that this is not the most humane way (if there is a humane way to kill anyway) but that what halal meat means, doesn't have to do with being humane as much as obeying a certain method in slaughter.
