Industriales is the 14th station on the Medellín Metro from north to south, and the sixth on line A going south.[1] It is one of the three transfer stations to line 1 of the metro bus system known as Metroplus. The station was opened on 30 November 1995 as part of the inaugural section of Line A, from Niquía to Poblado.[2]

The station is located in the south-central part of Medellín, adjacent to the headquarters of Bancolombia, the Bridge of Argos and Nutibara hill.[3] The station is located along the Medellin River and 30th Avenue, a road that crosses the city from east to west and connects the neighborhoods of El Poblado in Belén, being closest to the Sports Unit Belén station (although it is far from this) and adjacent to the South Highway that leads to southwest Colombia.
