The kratom industry is making a concerted effort to establish a clear regulatory framework as the market continues to expand. Industry leaders are advocating for standardized quality control measures and consistent labeling requirements to ensure consumer safety and product reliability.
With the global kratom market projected to reach billions by 2028, stakeholders argue that proper regulation is crucial for sustainable growth. The American Kratom Association (AKA) is at the forefront of this initiative, working closely with legislators to develop comprehensive guidelines.
Proponents believe that a well-defined regulatory structure will not only protect consumers but also legitimize the industry in the eyes of skeptics. However, challenges remain, including varying state-level regulations and ongoing debates about kratom’s classification.
As discussions progress, the industry remains optimistic that a balanced approach to regulation will foster innovation while maintaining product integrity and consumer trust.
