New Shopping Area on I-65 North

This fall there will be a Target, BestBuy, and Books-a-Million in a new shopping area along I-65 North in Fultondale. Next summer there is going to be a JC Penny, Ross, and other specialty shops.

Here's a link to the latest info and a map:

I know this isn't in Mt. Olive, but it will be convenient. In future posts, I hope to feature locally owned businesses right here in Mt. Olive.

I'll meet you further on up the road.
