H-E-B has reopened its historic South Congress Avenue location in Austin, originally established in 1957, with a new two-story, 145,000-square-foot store featuring a barbecue restaurant, nut butter machines, and the largest wine selection of any H-E-B. The grand opening included a $50,000 donation to local nonprofits and drew enthusiastic crowds, with some customers lining up overnight to be among the first to enter. The event highlighted the community's enduring loyalty to the Texas-based grocery chain.

Several major retailers will be closed on Thanksgiving Day 2023, including Academy Sports + Outdoors and most Walgreens locations. However, some stores in the San Antonio area, such as Bass Pro Shops, Big Lots, Central Market, Dollar General, and H-E-B, will remain open with limited hours.

H-E-B, the Texas-based grocery store chain, has announced plans to open three new stores in Melissa, Prosper, and Rockwall, as part of its expansion into the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The stores are expected to open in 2025, with construction set to begin next year. H-E-B has been acquiring land in North Texas for the past 20 years, and these new locations reflect the population growth and increased demand for grocery options in Collin County and the surrounding areas. The addition of H-E-B stores is seen as an opportunity for local residents to shop closer to home and is expected to bring more jobs to the respective cities.
H-E-B is selling 10-foot Halloween Skeletons with light-up eyes for $260 each, plus additional fees, both in-store and online. These giant skeletons are perfect for Halloween decor and are an alternative to the popular 12-foot skeletons sold by Home Depot. Last year, life-sized skeletons were a Halloween trend in the San Antonio area, with Party City even organizing a scavenger hunt featuring over 100 of them.
H-E-B, a popular grocery store chain, is set to open a new location in Pflugerville, Texas, as part of its expansion plans. The new store will provide residents with a convenient shopping option and contribute to the local retail sector.
H-E-B, the Texas-based grocery chain, is set to open a new store in McKinney later this month. The store, located on the northeast corner of Custer Road and Eldorado Parkway, will operate from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. seven days a week. This expansion into North Texas follows recent store openings in Plano and Frisco, which drew large crowds eager to purchase H-E-B's popular products. The company also has plans for additional locations in the region, including low-price Joe V's Smart Shop stores in Dallas' Pleasant Grove and Red Bird neighborhoods.
H-E-B celebrated the grand opening of its Nutty Brown location in southwest Austin, Texas. The 103,000-square-foot grocery store, situated at the former site of the Nutty Brown Amphitheatre, features various amenities such as curbside and delivery services, an in-store meat market, prepared sushi and bakery goods, a beer and wine selection, live cooking demonstrations, a drive-thru pharmacy, and a fuel station. The store also showcases legacy venue memorabilia, including signed guitars from Texas musicians and a tribute wall mural.
H-E-B has opened a new 121,000-square-foot store in Wolf Lakes Village neighborhood in Georgetown, Texas, replacing the smaller I-35 location. The new store features a European village design, two entry towers, and a two-story True Texas BBQ with indoor and outdoor seating on both levels. H-E-B said the new store will offer an extensive range of products and services to cater to customers' every need.
H-E-B is expanding its Joe V's Smart Shop concept to two Dallas neighborhoods, offering low prices on fresh foods. The stores will be the first to open outside of Houston, where the format was founded in 2010. Joe V's is focused on produce, meat, and seafood, and includes amenities such as an in-store bakery and butchers cutting and packing fresh meat. The stores will be smaller than H-E-B stores and employ about 150 people each. H-E-B expects some pushback about its decision to bring Joe V's instead of H-E-B stores to the two Dallas neighborhoods.
