Boots, feed, fencing, and everything in between —
Tractor Supply Co. has officially arrived in Odenville. 🚜🌾

Today’s ribbon cutting was a great reminder of what growth looks like in St. Clair County: strong partnerships, local investment, and new opportunities for the people who call this place home.

A special thank you to the City of Odenville, Al, the St. Clair County Commission, and the Greater Odenville Chamber of Commerce for helping make today’s celebration possible.

Ribbon cutting… LongHorn Steakhouse style. 🤠✂️

Yesterday we celebrated the grand opening of LongHorn Steakhouse in Pell City with a ribbon (and lasso) cutting alongside The City of Pell City, the St. Clair County Commission, and developer Bill Ellison of I-20 Development.

A little wind, and even a few snow flurries during the ceremony, didn’t slow down the celebration. Before guests headed inside, Bill Pruitt - Mayor of Pell City had the chance to sample LongHorn’s signature 20 oz. Outlaw Ribeye at a special tasting table.

We’re proud to welcome this new investment to Pell City and look forward to seeing LongHorn Steakhouse thrive here.
