Around one million tonnes of cargo move through Ortona each year, making it the leading commercial port of Italy's Abruzzo region. The mix is dominated by solid and liquid bulk — grain, feldspar, chalk, cement, olive residue and petroleum products — alongside general cargo, steel products and project loads, while scheduled container lines play only a minor part. Positioned for the industrial and farming areas of central Italy, the port offers space and infrastructure for cargo, RoRo and passenger traffic. Hinterland links run via the A14 motorway (north–south) and the A25 (east–west), plus an internal rail network connected to the Adriatic line. For bulk, breakbulk and project consignments in Abruzzo, Ortona is the obvious call; for container services and ferries, Ancona and Bari are the larger Adriatic alternatives.
