With more than five decades serving Ennis, company announces major investment for new store
After more than five decades serving the Ennis community, H‑E‑B has plans for a major investment that will bring a new store to the North Texas city. The store is expected to be more than double the size of the existing location in downtown Ennis, and the company will start moving forward with this landmark project sometime in mid-2027.
With a new footprint, customers can look forward to all the convenient services, quality products and low prices customers expect from H‑E‑B. The new store will also have a full-service Pharmacy with drive-thru, offer Curbside service with dedicated parking and Home Delivery, and South Flo Pizza, which offers handcrafted artisan pizza that’s made to order.




“We are proud to have served our neighbors in Ennis for more than 50 years, and we hope our new store will continue to be an important part of this community,” said Mabrie Jackson, H‑E‑B Managing Director of Public Affairs. “We want our customers to be proud of this new store, and we are committed to have it reflect the personality of the community and the deep gratitude we have for our loyal customers.”

The current Ennis H‑E‑B, located at 101 S. Clay, will remain open until the new store becomes operational. No plans have been decided on what H‑E‑B will do with the property once it closes.
Partners who work at the store will have the opportunity to transition to the new location. Additional roles and positions will be needed for the new store, and job opportunities will be posted on the H‑E‑B Careers page once they become available.
H‑E‑B remains deeply committed to bringing Ennis customers an updated store that will offer a world-class shopping experience. Additional project updates will be shared as they develop.
