The Northern Vermont-Quebec Trade Coalition is a regionally-based, cross-border initiative designed to combine the international trade development resources of Northern Vermont with those of the townships in southern Quebec Province, the areas of Monteregie and Cantons de l'est, respectively.  By working cooperatively and collaboratively with Quebec Province's economic development network through our partners at the Conseil Economique du Haut-Richelieu, a greater number of business-to-business partnerships can be formed, ultimately increasing exports and imports throughout the region and bringing much needed vitality to the near-border region. 

The Northern Vermont-Quebec Trade Coalition is North America's foremost regionally based trade alliance and represents the first sharing of trade development resources in the history of the U.S. and Canada.  This cutting-edge venture will address the development of cross-border business partnerships, partnership-to-profit development, policy and regulatory issues concerning cross-border commerce, and immediate trade success through the dissemination of critical trade information and technical assistance.
