A commutative quasi-hypergroup \(H_\Gamma\) is associated to a given hypergraph \(\Gamma\). Necessary and sufficient conditions for \(H_\Gamma\) to be associative are found. For certain classes of hypergraphs that include finite hypergraphs, a sequence of hypergraphs is described such that the corresponding quasi-hypergroups form a join space.
