A new relationship between the Ports of Saint John and Argentina is slowly growing.
A letter of intent between the two was signed over the weekend with further discussions to take place next month in Brazil.
Captain Al Soppitt says there is no indication on how much new business this set-up could bring.
Right now, the Port of Saint John deals with over 26 tonnes of cargo every year, most of that petroleum.
