Apopka South & Orange Blossom Trail Medical Supply Hub – Bridging Downtown Orlando and Wekiwa
Our LAC Health counter inside Walmart #955 at 1700 S Orange Blossom Trail connects Pine Hills trauma routes, Lockhart industrial parks, College Park outpatient centers, and the Wekiwa Springs residential boom. When AdventHealth Orlando, Orlando Health ORMC, Nemours Children’s Lake Nona, Eatonville clinics, or Orange County Public Schools route overflow cases north, they rely on this hub for same-day replenishment.
Located minutes from the I-4 Ultimate interchange and SR 414 (Maitland Boulevard), this counter supports high-density apartment communities, SunRail commuters, and frontline EMS units covering Clarcona Ocoee Road to downtown. We integrate with LYNX paratransit, Orlando Police event command, and FDOT reversible lanes so deliveries stay predictable even during Orlando Magic playoffs or Universal’s HHN surge.
The south Apopka corridor blends urban and suburban populations with legacy citrus groves, making logistics complicated. We bring together advanced cold-chain capacity, bilingual labeling, incident command credentials, and hyperlocal partnership knowledge to keep every facility from College Park to Zellwood moving.

Orange Blossom Trail Heritage
The OBT corridor dates to the Dixie Highway and has weathered booms, busts, desegregation, and modern transit projects. It is home to Eatonville, the nation’s oldest incorporated Black municipality, and Pine Hills, one of Florida’s most diverse communities. Hurricanes Charley and Irma, Pulse Nightclub tragedies, and the COVID-19 surge shaped our readiness philosophy: local caches, multilingual messaging, and trauma-informed logistics.
