Each year the Trade Center organizes a gubernatorial trade mission as well as smaller missions. The Trade Missions provide one-on-one meetings with potential foreign trade partners and unique networking opportunities.

Trade missions are particularly useful for first time exporters or companies that have had difficulty expanding into a particular country or market. The Trade Center arranges most details of the mission including transportation, translators and business meetings.

The Maine International Trade Center has led trade missions to South Korea, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, Japan, Taiwan, U.K., Iceland, Italy, Hong Kong, Germany, The Netherlands, Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina.
