H-E-B in Euless is the first store in a decade that has been built close to the Grapevine-Colleyville- Southlake area, with Trader Joe’s in Southlake being the last store that opened in 2015, Community Impact previously reported. Tom Thumb off Glade Road in Colleyville was renovated and renamed in 2024, after opening in 1992 as an Albertsons, said Christy Lara, director of public relations for Albertsons, Tom Thumb and Randalls. With H-E-B opening, Rose said she expects to see more people traveling to the Colleyville businesses along Glade Road, Cheek-Sparger Road and SH 121. “I am excited for H-E-B customers to find a new favorite brunch spot at The Brunch District or From Across the Pond, and [visit] all the incredible businesses and restaurants on the east side of Colleyville,” Rose said. From Across the Pond owner John Humphreys said although he doesn’t anticipate new foot traffic since his restaurant only sells gluten-free foods, he still considers the store “a win.” “Having H-E-B right there is a tremendous benefit to us,” he said. “If we get in a hurry and we need something now, they’re [likely] going to have it.” Becky Gjekaj, co-owner of Ed’s Nizza Pizza in Colleyville, is looking forward to people visiting her restaurant along Glade Road. “The new development will bring more traffic, more families and more energy to the neighborhood, and we truly believe it’ll help all local businesses thrive,” she said. The Colleyville businesses on Glade Road near Tom Thumb received 100,000 monthly visitors this year, Rose said in September at Colleyville’s monthly economic development forum.

Comparatively, Tara Village on Cheek-Sparger Road, which does not have a grocery anchor, received 18,000 monthly visitors this year, she said. “Our grocery-anchored centers are really where you want to be in Colleyville,” Rose said. The H-E-B Mid-Cities store is about 2.5 miles away from Tara Village and 1 mile from Glade Road. “There will be an increase [in traffic] on Glade Road and Cheek-Sparger Road because customers will find creative ways to get to the anchor,” Rose said. Kroger is also adding stores in North Texas and uses population growth to determine a new store’s location, said John Votava, Kroger’s Director of Communications and Public Affairs.
