First Mile Mainely Made

First Mile Mainely Made is a curated retail shop located inside the Greater Fort Kent Area Chamber of Commerce Visitor Center at 112 Main Street in Fort Kent. We celebrate the local businesses, makers, and entrepreneurs of Northern Maine by showcasing their products where visitors and locals are already stopping in.

Every item in our shop comes from right here in the greater Fort Kent area. It doesn't have to be handmade -- it just has to be local. From artisan crafts and locally produced foods to photography, jewelry, pottery, and more, First Mile Mainely Made is a place where the community's creativity and commerce come together.

For our Chamber members, this is more than just a place to sell -- it's a platform. Whether your business is tucked off the main road or simply looking for more visibility, having your products on our shelves gives visitors a reason to seek you out. Our staff uses every product as a conversation starter, pointing tourists directly to your door.

It's word-of-mouth marketing built right into the Visitor Center -- helping members gain exposure, helping the Chamber offer meaningful gifts to visitors, and helping everyone celebrate the businesses that make Northern Maine unique.
