Port Milwaukee is proud to share it has recently earned its 17th Robert J. Lewis Pacesetter Award from the U.S. Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation, recognizing growth in international cargo and the Port's expanding role in connecting Wisconsin products with markets around the world. In 2025, Port Milwaukee moved approximately 576,810 metric tons of international cargo through the St. Lawrence Seaway — a 78% increase from 2024! This marks the Port's second consecutive year of double-digit growth in international Seaway cargo. This national recognition is a reflection of Port Milwaukee's continued growth and vital role in Wisconsin's global supply chain.
