H-E-B celebrates opening of 3rd San Marcos location

The third H-E-B grocery store location in San Marcos celebrated its opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Oct. 6. The store’s official opening is Oct. 7.

The overview

Community leaders and H-E-B executives celebrated the 114,000-square-foot store’s opening. The location will create over 400 jobs and increase food access for residents on the east side of I-35.

“H-E-B is built to reflect the community it serves, and this store is no exception,” said Jeff Martinez, general manager of the new H-E-B location. “We've gone all out for you, bringing together fresh food, quality products and convenient services you know and love from H-E-B.”

Diving deeper

H-E-B made sizable donations to three local organizations, including the San Marcos CISD Education Foundation, Hays County Food Bank and Meadows Center for Water and the Environment at Texas State University. Each organization received $10,000.

Additionally, the company allocated funding toward native trees that provide shade, enhance outdoor learning and benefit students, families and wildlife at San Marcos High School. The planting was part of H-E-B’s Trees for Texans initiative.

The third San Marcos H-E-B features the city’s first True Texas BBQ restaurant, groceries, a full-service bakery and tortilleria, Sushiya hand-rolled sushi, a pharmacy with drive-thru services and much more.
