American Hardwood Assured (AHA) is up and running to provide companies with deforestation-free due diligence statements and county-level harvest origin GPS data. This platform is free of charge through at least 2027 thanks to USDA funding and support from American Hardwood Export Council (AHEC) members.
To sign up, visit https://aha.hardwood.us/register and fill out your company information including your EIN. Registration is only available to U.S. companies at this time, so a valid EIN is required.
AHEC will host an AHA Walkthrough Webinar this Thursday, August 7th at 10am Eastern Time. You can register here to attend this webinar. There are also instructional videos to help navigate the system in the “AHA How to instructions” attachment and on the “How to Use Platform” tab on the AHA site.
If you have any difficulty with the system, or questions about American Hardwood Assured, please feel free to reach out to the AHEC team or email help@hardwood.us.
