From August 31–September 4, 2026, International Agribusiness Center (IABC) staff participated in the St. Lawrence Seaway Trade Revitalization Mission to Morocco and Portugal. This mission supported the exports of Wisconsin grain and other products through the St. Lawrence Seaway, a growing corridor for Wisconsin goods. While there, IABC staff met with multiple port authorities, shipping companies, freight forwarders, brokers, and buyers that were all interested in considering this shipping option as compared to the U.S. East Coast ports. The inland ports within the St. Lawrence Seaway are a strong strategic advantage, as it’s a direct route to the ocean from Wisconsin.
