Alicante, Spain

The Port of Alicante’s potential is based on its geographic location, since it covers a service area where municipalities as important as Alicante, Elche, Murcia and Albacete converge, and also makes inroads towards Madrid through the industrial zones of the river Vinalopó. The strength of this area’s business sector lies in an optimal transport infrastructure: port, motorways, roads and airport, which increases its export capacity and commercial tradition. But Alicante Port Authority’s commitment is not only focused on the development and management of logistical infrastructures, but is also committed to public, social and economic institutions in order to introduce the necessary strategic changes and thereby encourage new companies to set up in its area of service.
