SUMMARY:Manufacturing Month Tours
DESCRIPTION:Manufacturing Month is a statewide effort to raise awareness about the strength and diversity of Maine’s manufacturing sector\, and to inspire the next generation of workers. Raising awareness is the first step in solving Maine’s workforce challenges and it also strengthens our advocacy efforts in Augusta. The more people understand the value of manufacturing\, the more support we can build for policies that benefit our sector and workforce. \nWe’ll be kicking off with Maritime Industry Day on October 1st at Albacore Park in Portsmouth\, NH. This cross-border event brings together students\, educators\, and industry leaders to highlight career opportunities in the maritime industrial base and sets the tone for a powerful month of awareness and engagement. \nFind the full list of tours here.

SUMMARY:IAS Oktoberfest 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Manufacturers Association of Maine will be at Industrial Automation’s Supply’s 9th Annual Oktoberfest Automation Fair! This is a fun way to kick of Manufacturing Month\, and it is a great event for manufacturers interested in automation.  \nClick here to register \n“If we had our way\, Oktoberfest would be tomorrow—and every Thursday\, frankly! But\, the reality is that we only get one a year\, and this year Oktoberfest is Thursday\, October 2 from 3-7pm. It’s an annual fall tradition here on Industrial Way (also known as “Brewer’s Row”) in Portland\, Maine\, and this year is shaping up to be the best edition yet. \nAnd\, since we assumed control over the entirety of our headquarters in 2023\, we plan on having an entire section of our warehouse dedicated to demos and product samples for you to peruse. \nNow for the really good stuff: As always\, this event is free for all attendees. We’re excited to have Mainely Burgers back with their amazing fare\, and they’re working on Year Three of their Oktoberfest-specific menus for you which has already has become something you don’t want to miss! \nAlso\, we’ll have craft beer from Allagash Brewing Company on draft\, as well as some neighborhood “guest taps\,” plus cans from all the other fantastic breweries in our area in our ever-expanding swag pile.”

SUMMARY:Tariff Strategies for Maine Manufacturers presented by MITC
DESCRIPTION:Is your global supply chain in need of an overhaul?\nHow can you legally eliminate\, delay\, or recover some of these once-in-a-lifetime duties?  \nFor small manufacturers that rely on imported products and materials\, US tariffs could mean a significant increase in costs of production\, reducing competitiveness domestically and internationally. When other countries retaliate with their own tariffs on US exports\, the impact on prices is compounded. \nAlthough there is no magic pill or one-size-fits-all solution\, there are a variety of strategies you can employ to guide your business through the ongoing disruptions of changing trade policy. \nJoin Maine International Trade Center (MITC) and Manufacturers Association of Maine (MAME) for this live webinar with Mike Allocca from Allocca Enterprises\, Inc.  Listen and learn to ensure you are doing everything you can to help your company stay on top of available tariff mitigation options. \nRequest registration link here
