Boaz

Boaz, Alabama is located atop the Sand Mountain Plateau, which is labeled for its sandy soil. The Boaz economy grew from the soil of Sand Mountain, primarily because it was ideal farm land with a mild climate. Boaz was the nearest shopping center for many communities atop the mountain. Boaz is in northeast Alabama between Gadsden and Guntersville, and only 77 miles from Birmingham and 57 miles from Huntsville. Although Boaz was primarily a town built upon the agriculture sector, it now possesses a diverse industry base. Such industries include: automotive parts manufacturing and distributing, poultry processing, pipe fittings, carpet yarns, and parts for the aircraft industry. We also recycle steel for sources around the world.
