H-E-B is further expanding its footprint in North Texas, announcing the official opening of a new Dallas-area store.
The Texas-based grocery store will open its first location in Murphy, Texas, on July 22, a suburban city a little north of Dallas. It will be the city’s first. For ages, H-E-B fans had to make the drive (albeit a short one) to nearby Plano, but now they will have a location all to themselves.
Located at 740 E FM 544 in Murphy, the newest H-E-B’s doors will open at 6 a.m. on Wednesday. The 136,000-square-foot location will include all the familiar go-tos, including a True Texas BBQ restaurant, curbside pickup area, fuel station and car wash, among other staples.
“H-E-B is excited to build on the company’s longstanding presence in the area and continue its expansion across North Texas,” an H-E-B spokesperson said in a press release.
But this new one is the main concern for Murphy residents. In terms of groceries, the nearby area is home to a Walmart and Target.
“Murphy has been looking forward to this announcement for years, and to see it becoming a reality is truly exciting,” said Aretha Adams, City Manager of Murphy, upon the original announcement of the construction in April 2024.
