Earlier this year, H-E-B announced plans for its fourth Woodlands store and a new San Felipe-Fountain View location.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"> Other grocers such as Trader Joe’s, Kroger, Whole Foods, and many others have already broken ground in the competitive Houston market throughout 2013.
