PLANO (WBAP/KLIF) – The first H-E-B grocery store in Plano opened on Wednesday near the intersection of Preston Road and Spring Creek.
The opening is one of several planned by the grocery store chain in the DFW metroplex. A Frisco location opened earlier this year, and stores are expected to be built in Fort Worth, Mansfield, and other metroplex cities in coming years.
Shoppers flocked to H-E-B Plano early Wednesday morning. Some waited in line overnight.
“It was great,” said a Plano woman who showed up early. “I’ve never been to one and it was awesome.”
Other shoppers were glad not to have to drive a distance.
“I could have gone to the Frisco store, but I decided to wait for this one,” said another shopper.
H-E-B’s competitor, Kroger, held a re-grand opening at its Plano store on Wednesday.
