The Osceola Riverport Authority is a key public port facility situated along the Mississippi River in Osceola, Arkansas. Serving the Northeast Arkansas region, this port plays a crucial role in the transportation and shipping of agricultural products, moving over 200,000 tons annually. Its strategic location not only supports the local economy—historically rooted in timber, cotton, and now a diversified industrial sector—but also connects businesses to national and international markets via the inland river system. With direct access to Interstate 55 and the Burlington Northern Santa Fe rail network, the port offers highly competitive logistics for bulk and break-bulk commodities. The availability of nearly 600 contiguous acres of flood-protected industrial sites adjacent to the port further underscores its significance for future development and attracting manufacturing or agribusiness operations. As a public resource, the Osceola Riverport Authority is instrumental in sustaining regional growth, supporting both shipping customers and the broader economic landscape.
