Global Pest Management Coalition Selects 2025 Board Members

The Global Pest Management Coalition announced the officers and members of their 2025 Board of Directors, with Manuela Cordeiro of Portugal, serving as President of the Board of Directors for the Coalition.

The Coalition also announced that it has formally been established as a 501(c)6 organization in the United States, marking an important milestone in its development as a global trade association. This new tax-exempt status, recognized by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, enables the Coalition to better serve its international membership while strengthening its ability to promote industry interests worldwide. As part of this transition, the Coalition's governing Council has been formally restructured as a Board of Directors, aligning with international corporate governance standards and enhancing the organization's operational effectiveness.
