At the time, the newest location had an estimated $4 million sticker price and a tentative October 2024 construction completion date, based on preliminary filings.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward through 2025 and the start of 2026, work continued onward. Now, Austin residents are seeing the most momentum on the project as store signage has been added to both the building&#8217;s marquee and the store registry heading into the North Loop Plaza shopping complex. MySA visited the site on Friday, March 27, and saw crews actively working on site and the latest insignia solidifying the project is still in the works.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;ll mark the second H Mart in Texas&#8217; capital after the chain opened its inaugural Austin shop back in February 2018. Company officials previously told MySA in late December 2025 the business didn&#8217;t have a tentative opening date or timeline available; MySA reached out again on Friday for the latest status and will update this story if we receive a response.<\/p>\n<p>Statewide, Texas is home to seven H Marts in the Austin, Dallas and Houston metros, with Austin&#8217;s upcoming storefront marking the eighth in the Lone Star State. As for San Antonio? Well, no projects are coming down the pipeline at this time \u2014 but company officials told MySA in late 2025 they&#8217;ve received plenty of requests for one.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We do receive a high volume of inquiries and enthusiasm from the San Antonio community, and it\u2019s certainly an area we would love to be in at some point,&#8221; store officials told MySA in late November. &#8220;There are many contributing factors and often long wait times involved in securing the right location for a new store, and these variables can influence our timeline. Unfortunately, for now, we don\u2019t have any additional insights on our end.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Find it:\u00a05222 Burnet Road, Austin, TX, 78756<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"H Mart, the beloved national Asian supermarkets and food halls chain, first registered project filings for its second&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":224966,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[132,134,133,2108,821,820],"class_list":{"0":"post-224965","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-austin","8":"tag-austin","9":"tag-austin-headlines","10":"tag-austin-news","11":"tag-mysaaustin","12":"tag-mysabusiness","13":"tag-mysastaff"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224965","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=224965"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224965\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/224966"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=224965"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=224965"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=224965"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
