Location
Louisville, Kentucky
Louisville, Kentucky’s largest city, has been a major location for the manufacturing industry and distribution for more than 200 years. Situated at the Falls of the Ohio, Louisville became a key port for the western frontier. Louisville’s river economy was driven by manufacturing and shipping. Louisville gained international attention for bourbon whiskey, Louisville Slugger baseball bats and the Kentucky Derby; cultural hallmarks that the city embraces.
Today Louisville continues to support a solid manufacturing base as well as being a leader in logistical and distribution services. It’s geographically centered location at the intersection of 3 Interstate Systems combined with the UPS Hub located here facilitates efficient shipping throughout the United States.
