Alabaster I‑65 Gateway Medical Supply Hub – Colonial Promenade & Shelby County Logistics
Shelby County’s I‑65 corridor connects Shelby Baptist Medical Center, Children’s South, UAB Medicine Hoover clinics, Grandview and Brookwood outreach, Thompson High School, Amazon BHM5, Mercedes-Benz U.S. International, 117th Air Refueling Wing, and the Cahaba River water system. Our LAC Health counter inside Walmart #423 at 630 Colonial Promenade Parkway keeps Shelby Baptist OR suites, Alabama Orthopaedic & Spine, Children’s South transport, AMR/Shelby EMA, Amazon and Mercedes onsite clinics, and Calera/Montevallo fire units stocked without waiting on downtown Birmingham depots.
Within 10 miles are Shelby Baptist Medical Center, Grandview Physicians Center, UAB Medicine Hoover, Encompass Health, CSX intermodal, Norfolk Southern Norris Yard, and the I‑65/I‑459 interchange. Severe thunderstorms, tornado outbreaks, Talladega race weekends, Mercedes/Hyundai supply chain surges, and I‑65 hazmat incidents demand a “medical suppliers near me” counter tuned to Shelby County ICS—this Colonial Promenade hub delivers.
Alabaster combines healthcare, advanced manufacturing, education, and fast-growing neighborhoods. LAC Health supports that mix with generator-backed cold rooms, bilingual (English/Spanish) manifests, and MOUs with Shelby County EMA, UAB Medicine, and Alabama’s Industrial Development Authority partners.
