H-E-B is looking to make some big moves in Garland.
The popular grocer is making plans for two new stores in Garland with one in the more northern area and another in the southern region.
H-E-B intends to develop a store on a 21-acre site located between Crist Road and Firewheel Parkway off President George Bush Turnpike, according to a statement from the company. The purchase of that property is not yet final — and additional details will be shared as projects develop.
The company also plans to revitalize a vacant shopping center that will bring a Joe V’s Smart Shop, the store focused on price-conscious shoppers, to the city. H-E-B will revitalize a vacant shopping center located on the northeast corner of Centerville Road and LBJ Freeway.
Construction is expected to begin in the coming months.
H-E-B is opening stores in North Texas as it seeks to tap into the region’s growing population and better compete with names like Walmart and Kroger. The company recently opened a store in Forney, which is on the eastern side of the D-FW, after launching sites in cities such as Plano and Frisco.

“For years, bringing H-E-B to Garland has been one of the most consistent requests from our residents,” Dylan Hedrick, mayor of Garland, said in a post on Facebook. “Together, these projects represent significant private investment in our city.”
Hedrick noted that while the property’s purchase may not be purchased yet near George Bush, “I am confident that we can complete this deal.”

A separate city document says the proposed development would bring an approximately 115,000-square-foot H-E-B grocery store adjacent to the Firewheel Town Center.
The site in the southern part of the city covers about seven acres.
“This project represents long-overdue revitalization for South Garland and will help spark new momentum in the surrounding area,” Hedrick said.
