H-E-B Acquires Property for New Store in North Texas
As the retailer continues its expansion in North Texas, H-E-B has acquired property in Irving, with plans to open its first H-E-B store there, in the Las Colinas community.
The Irving H-E-B store will be built at Interstate 635 and Olympus Boulevard, in front of the former Fry’s electronics store. Construction is expected to start later this year. It’s expected to open in late 2026. Additional details will be shared closer to the store’s opening.
The store, which will service Irving, Coppell, Grapevine and West Dallas residents, is expected to create about 700 jobs. Once available, all job opportunities will be posted on heb.com/careers.
“H-E-B has been a Texas institution for almost 120 years, and it’s a pleasure to welcome them home to Irving, along with 700 new jobs for our workforce. Our community offers an excellent quality of life that includes best-in-class amenities, and the addition of H-E-B reinforces this with its broad array of grocery options at affordable prices,” said Irving Mayor Rick Stopfer. “Irving’s central location in the metroplex will also give area residents easy access to H-E-B. We are grateful to the H-E-B team for their partnership and for our collaborative efforts with the Greater Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce, the Irving Economic Development Partnership and all our community stakeholders who made this announcement possible.”
The largest privately held employer in Texas, San Antonio-based H-E-B has more than 160,000 employees in Texas and Mexico. The multi-format retailer operates 435-plus stores.
