H-E-B purchases 600 acres just north of Sanger

H-E-B, recently announced, they have purchased 600 acres just north of Sanger.  The land connects between Metz Road and W. Lone Oak Road, on the west side of I-35.  The project is part of a multi-phase plan to develop the property, but not for a grocery store. The land is located just north of Chisam Road just inside the Cooke County Line. 

To support its growing business, H-E-B finalized the land purchase in North Texas where the company has plans to build facilities in multiple phases to support its supply chain operations. 

The project is still in the early planning stages, and there is not a timeline for construction. Additional details about the project will be released as plans develop. The terms of the land purchase were not disclosed.

Once in operation, the facilities will expand and build upon H-E-B’s existing supply chain operations, allowing the company to better serve customers and communities across North and West Texas.

“Buying this property marks the first step in developing a master-planned campus that will strengthen our ability to serve more Texans,” said Carson Landsgard, Chief Supply Chain Officer for H-E-B. “This project reinforces our commitment to communities across the state and will generate more local job opportunities in the years ahead.”

Additionally, H-E-B recently purchased 122 acres next to its current distribution campus in Temple to support future growth at the site. There are no immediate plans for construction there, and details will be shared as plans develop. The terms of the deal were not disclosed.

H-E-B, which has been expanding its footprint in North Texas, has two supermarkets planned in Denton.

One will be at Hillwood’s Landmark development at the northwest corner of Interstate 35W and Robson Ranch Road, at Denton’s border with Argyle. The other will be at University Drive and Bonnie Brae Street near Rayzor Ranch.

Both are expected to begin construction this spring.

There is no construction timeline for the supply chain facilities yet, as the project is still in the early stages.

The largest privately held employer in Texas, H-E-B continues to grow its business across all areas of the company, maintaining its push as an economic driver for Texas.
