Shelby Concrete, founded in 1986 by the Knox family, has its roots in Alabama's concrete industry dating back over 50 years. The journey began with Barney Lee Knox Jr. in 1967 under the name Knox Concrete, where the family operated a single mixer truck and a basic batching setup. As the business evolved, it was renamed Chilton County Concrete in 1978, before ultimately becoming Shelby Concrete Incorporated in 1986. Today, Shelby Concrete has significantly expanded its reach beyond Central Alabama, serving the Montgomery River Region and the Gulf Coast Regions through its subsidiaries, Builders Supply and Baldwin Concrete.
With nine ready-mix concrete plants strategically located across Alabama, Shelby Concrete is dedicated to delivering high-quality concrete solutions. The company caters to a diverse clientele, including residential home builders, large-scale construction projects, and individual customers, ensuring that everyone has access to their products and services. Their commitment to expansion reflects their dedication to better serving their markets and enhancing customer satisfaction.
Shelby Concrete also prioritizes environmentally friendly practices through their ready-mix concrete offering, which boasts benefits such as timely deliveries, superior quality, custom mix designs, versatility for a variety of uses, and reduced pollution.
