The City of Carrollton will welcome its first H-E-B after City Council approved an ordinance to rezone the land located at the northeast corner of Parker Road and Josey Lane to make way for the grocery giant.

During the Tuesday, January 6 meeting, Councilmembers heard from the applicant and held a public hearing to consider the zoning amendment for the 120,000-square-foot store that will feature a gas station, car wash, restaurant, and pharmacy, with the latter two offering drive-thru services. Covered grocery pick-up and more than 600 parking spaces are planned for the Carrollton location. The Texas favorite includes a bakery, seafood counter, meat market, floral section, housewares, abundant produce, and seasonal plants.

“We are so proud that H-E-B, a Texas institution, has chosen the City of Carrollton for one of its newest locations,” Mayor Steve Babick said. “This venture is the culmination of years of hard work across the region by several actors and shines a light on Carrollton as our community continues to set itself apart as an example of investment and development opportunity. We’re excited to welcome H-E-B to Carrollton, the community that families and businesses want to call home.”

Mabrie Jackson, H-E-B’s managing director of public affairs said, “H-E-B is excited to bring a new store to Carrollton and surrounding cities. While no construction timeline has been finalized, we look forward to sharing more details later this year.”

H-E-B has expanded its presence in North Texas since it opened its first store in Frisco in 2022, but the grocery chain has existed as a Texas staple for more than 120 years.

Carrollton’s Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on Thursday, December 4, 2025, and made a recommendation to approve the ordinance to rezone the 17.2-acre tract to allow for not only retail space, but an onsite gas station and car wash as well. A traffic impact analysis was also submitted, reviewed, and approved by Carrollton’s Transportation Engineering Division.
