"This is a rapidly growing area, and we are excited to introduce this new H-E-B store to Denton and surrounding towns. We look forward to meeting our new neighbors and sharing more details soon," said Mabrie Jackson, Managing Director of Public Affairs for H-E-B and Central Market.

H-E-B in North Texas

Big picture view:
H-E-B already has several locations in North Texas, including Plano, Allen, Frisco, McKinney, Fort Worth, Mansfield, Burleson, Hudson Oaks, Granbury, Cleburne, and Waxahachie.
New locations are planned for Irving, Rockwall, Mid-Cities, Melissa, Murphy, Prosper, and Forney.
An H-E-B-owned Joe V's Smart Shop opened in Oak Cliff last summer, and another is in the works for the Pleasant Grove area. There are also three H-E-B-owned Central Market stores in Dallas.
In January, H-E-B announced the purchase of a 10-acre property in North Dallas with the goal of opening its first H-E-B store within Dallas city lines. But that location is not yet listed on the company’s store map.
