We had the opportunity to host U.S. Secretary of Transportation, Pete Buttigieg, Governor Janet Mills, and District 1 Congresswoman Chellie Pingree at the International Marine Terminal (IMT). It was an honor to highlight what state and federal funds have been able to contribute to Maine’s transportation industry. The Maine Port Authority (MPA) looks forward to continued growth for Maine’s port infrastructure.

The trade relationship between Maine and Iceland on Eimskip’s network has never been stronger! What an incredible trip to Reykjavík, Iceland! We participated in the @arctic_circle_org assembly this past week and enjoyed excellent meetings with @eimskip. Here the Lagarfoss is loaded and discharged from Reykjavik. This Eimskip vessel is one of the reasons Maine and Iceland are closely linked!
