Tri-State Heritage
Ashland’s economy grew from riverboats and iron furnaces to railroads, oil, and healthcare innovation. Floods (1937, 1997), the 2014 chemical spill, 2020 pandemic surges, and frequent I‑64 weather closures proved the need for local supply caching. LAC Health maintains hardened shelving, redundant power, and mutual-aid agreements with Kentucky Emergency Management and WV/KY/Ohio EMA partners.
Tri-State Demographics
Regional population 365,000 across Boyd, Greenup, Lawrence (KY), Lawrence (OH), Scioto (OH), and Cabell/Wayne (WV) counties. Demographics: 87% White, 7% Black, 3% Hispanic/Latino, 2% multiracial/other, 1% Native/Asian. High prevalence of chronic disease, opioid recovery, and aging infrastructure drives demand for reliable local logistics.
Licensing & Compliance
Kentucky Board of Pharmacy, Ohio nonresident license, West Virginia CSR, DEA Schedule II–V, FDA/IRB handling, Joint Commission/DNV, OSHA/NIOSH, FRA/PHMSA coordination, FEMA ICS/NIMS, HIPAA/HITECH, and tri-state EMA contracts.
