Texas' favorite supermarket chain is opening a new store in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, in the college town of Denton.

According to a release, as the retailer continues its expansion in the North Texas, they're planning to open their first H-E-B store in Denton in Hillwood’s Landmark development.

The Denton H-E-B store will be built on a more than 20-acre site at the northwest corner of Interstate 35W and Robson Ranch Road.

While the purchase of the property is not yet finalized, construction on the store is expected to begin this spring. Additional details about the project will be shared at a groundbreaking ceremony.

Denton's profile as a college town, home to the University of North Texas as well as Texas Woman's University, creates a critical mass of shoppers that can sustain the opening of a supermarket such as this.

“This is a rapidly growing area, and we are excited to introduce this new H-E-B store to Denton and surrounding towns. We look forward to meeting our new neighbors and sharing more details soon,” said Mabrie Jackson, Managing Director of Public Affairs for H-E-B and Central Market.

The store represents the latest H-E-B opening in the Fort Worth area that includes north Fort Worth at 3451 Heritage Trace Pkwy., which opened in April 2024; and Mansfield at 1670 E. Broad St., which opened in June 2024.

There is also a location in the works for Bedford at scheduled to open in the second half of 2026 — joining other recently opened DFW locations in Frisco, Plano, McKinney, and Allen, as well as two locations of the chain's smaller-format Joe V’s Smart Shop stores, as well as two Central Market locations in Fort Worth and Southlake, which have served Tarrant County for more than two decades.
