H-E-B<\/a> may have plans sooner rather than later for another Fort Worth grocery store.<\/p>\n

The San Antonio-based retailer is asking the city of Fort Worth to rezone land it just purchased a few months ago in far north Fort Worth. The zoning change is for \u201cthe intent of a retail use,\u201d according to the filing with the city.<\/p>\n

The location is the southeast corner of East Bonds Ranch Road and U.S. 287, directly across from a Kroger Marketplace that opened in October<\/a>. H-E-B has owned 17.5 acres at that corner for 10 years, but in December it purchased an adjacent 5 acres,<\/a> bringing the site total to about 22 acres.<\/p>\n

The company now wants to rezone the 5 acres from agriculture to \u201clight industrial\u201d to match the larger tract. Light industrial allows for commercial retail.<\/p>\n

H-E-B spokesperson Mabrie Jackson told the Star-Telegram on Friday that the company has nothing to announce for the Bonds Ranch Road site. She described the zoning change as merely to align the allowable land uses on the two properties.<\/p>\n

H-E-B\u2019s property is about 3 miles northeast of Fort Worth\u2019s first H-E-B,<\/a> which opened on Heritage Trace Parkway in April 2024. Over 800 people lined up at 6 a.m. to be some of the first customers in the store on opening day.<\/p>\n

The company is building its second Fort Worth store<\/a> on a 19-acre parcel in Walsh, the new development just over the Parker County line.<\/p>\n

The company has operated in Fort Worth since 2001 when it opened its Central Market store<\/a> at 4651 West Freeway across from Arlington Heights High School. H-E-B has been expanding in North Texas since its Frisco store in 2022. The company has a vast land portfolio across Texas<\/a> \u2014 including an empty spot on McPherson Boulevard<\/a> at Chisholm Trail Parkway in southwest Fort Worth.<\/p>\n

Development is booming along Bonds Ranch Road. Just east of the new Kroger will be a 40-acre mixed use development<\/a> that will include a 300-unit apartment complex, shops and an early learning center. On the corner of Blue Mound Road, a 55-acre development is slated to open in 2027 with more than 800 multifamily residential units.<\/p>\n
