MURPHY, Texas — Two more H-E-B grocery stores are being planned in North Texas cities.
Officials in the Collin County city of Murphy and the Tarrant County city of Euless on Monday announced plans for stores there. The Euless store will be on a development site shared with the city of Bedford, officials said.
Murphy officials said construction will begin within the next year on their store, with an opening date set for 2026.
The H-E-B Murphy location will be on the southwest corner of Farm Road 544 and McCreary Road, south of the CVS Pharmacy in that area, according to a city press release. Murphy is located just east of Plano.
"Having an H-E-B in our city is not only exciting from a sales tax revenue point of view, but as an asset to our community as whole," Mayor Scott Bradley said in the press release. "They are well known for their dedication to their customers and participation in the communities they serve. I look forward to growing this partnership."
Euless officials said the H-E-B there will be located at the northwest corner of Cheek-Sparger Road and Rio Grande Boulevard in the Glade Parks South area, which sits in both Euless and Bedford. The projected opening date is for late 2026.
H-E-B already has a strong presence in North Texas, with store locations in Plano, Allen, Frisco, McKinney, according to its website. The grocer is also bringing stores to the Fort Worth Alliance area, Forney and Mansfield.
H-E-B last month also broke ground on its second Dallas Joe V’s Smart Shop at the corner of Buckner Boulevard and Samuell Boulevard.
Joe V’s Smart Shop has 10 locations in the Houston area, where it launched in 2010. H-E-B, which operates Joe V’s Smart Shop, began construction last year on a Joe V’s location at the corner of Wheatland Road and Highway 67 in Dallas, which is expected to become the brand’s first store to open outside the Houston area. That store’s expected to open this summer.
