Now open in the Mid-Cities: a new 126,000 SF H-E-B Grocery Store designed to serve the growing Hurst-Euless-Bedford community.

The new store marks H-E-B’s 12th location in the DFW Metroplex and also includes the company’s 50th True Texas BBQ restaurant—another milestone in H-E-B’s continued growth across North Texas.

For over 20 years, Narrate has collaborated with Texas-based grocery company H-E-B to create exceptional retail experiences for shoppers and employees alike. Each H-E-B is unique to its setting, yet the experience encountered in every store is designed to inspire the same feeling: this is my H-E-B. We are so happy to help bring H-E-B to the people of Dallas-Ft. Worth!
