2025 AHPA Annual Report reflects a "Year of Transition & Impact"

May 13, 2026

The American Herbal Products Association (AHPA) has released its 2025 Annual Report, documenting a landmark year for the association and the botanical products industry.

Titled "A Year of Transition & Impact," the report details AHPA's leadership through significant regulatory shifts and legislative challenges, including securing critical enforcement discretion on DSHEA disclaimers and defending dietary supplements at the state level. It also highlights the association's strategic efforts to secure relief for members navigating the complex international trade and tariff landscape.

In his message to the membership, AHPA President & CEO Graham Rigby reflected on the industry's collective strength following a year of major milestones and the loss of late, longtime AHPA President Michael McGuffin.

"Reflecting on the past year, I am moved by the incredible resilience and unity of our community," said Rigby. "Michael's legacy is the garden he spent decades planting and growing — a rich landscape of advocacy, science, and stewardship. Today, that garden is ours to tend. Every initiative we undertake, every resource we share, and every connection we forge is an act of cultivation".

The 2025 Annual Report is now available for download on the AHPA website. Members are encouraged to review the publication for a look at the advocacy, education, and member service initiatives that defined the past year and have continued into 2026.
