Jan. 30, 2026 at 6:23pm

H-E-B, the San Antonio-based grocery chain, has purchased over 600 acres of land in the town of Valley View, Cooke County, Texas to build new supply chain facilities that will support its growing presence in the North Texas region. The land, situated along Interstate 35, will allow H-E-B to strengthen its distribution capabilities and better serve customers across North and West Texas.

Why it matters

H-E-B's expansion in North Texas represents the company's continued investment in the region as it aims to compete more directly with major retailers like Walmart and Kroger. The new distribution facilities will help H-E-B streamline its supply chain and logistics to meet growing customer demand in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and surrounding areas.

The details

The over 600-acre property in Valley View will allow H-E-B to develop a master-planned campus to support its supply chain operations. While the project is still in the early planning stages with no construction timeline announced, the facilities will complement H-E-B's existing distribution site in Temple, where the company recently purchased an additional 120 acres to support future growth.

  • H-E-B began its major North Texas expansion in 2022 with the opening of its first store in Frisco.
  • H-E-B is set to open its latest store in Forney, Texas next week.
