The goal of Intermodal / Trade Development is to create logistical advantages and develop intermodal solutions to maximize our customers’ international supply chain through the Port of Baltimore. Our focus is connecting opportunities from beneficial cargo owners (BCOs), Non Vessel Operating Common Carriers (NVOCCs), forwarders and brokers with ocean carriers for all cargo types. Supporting functions facilitate interaction with truck & rail providers, terminals, commercial real estate, economic development, MDOT sister agencies and other components to / from inland locations.

The department also interacts with Customs and Border Patrol, the U.S. Coast Guard, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Food and Drug Administration, and other federal agencies to assist with the development and implementation of policies and procedures.
