“We are excited to officially announce that H-E-B is coming to Mansfield,” said Juan-Carlos Rück, H-E-B executive vice president. “We look forward to providing this dynamic and growing city with the best H-E-B has to offer.””
H-E-B chose Plano and Frisco for its first two stores as the population is high and development is fast in the two areas.
