ABOUT THE MALAWI HEMP ASSOCIATION

The Malawi Hemp Association (MHA) is a non-profit organization created to encourage trade and discourse among hemp professionals. MHA is dedicated to the development of the hemp industry in Malawi. This goal will be attained by coordinating legislation, agricultural organisations, farmers, processors, manufacturers, retailers and investors. The promotion of the hemp industry in Malawi is congruent with the desire to improve the environment and economy in Malawi, through production and utilization of hemp farming and products.

MHA has developed a close relationship with government agencies and officials to establish regulations that benefit both the people and the hemp industry across Malawi. MHA provides a wealth of expertise in fields ranging from agriculture to extraction and the latest developments in cannabinoid science.

MHA firmly believes that the Malawi industry is trending towards bio-sustainability and hemp plays a critical role in the establishment of a new economic paradigm. The Malawi Hemp Association is dedicated to shifting the perception of hemp as being an alternative crop, to a mainstream commodity.
