H-E-B said the 1 million square foot facility will be the company’s largest single-build warehouse and will create between 600 and 700 new jobs.

“We have a great group of partners that join us every day and do a great job, and at the same time, it's a great location for us. It’s about transportation and proximity to our network,” said Carson Landsgard, senior vice president of supply chain and logistics for H-E-B.

The warehouse is expected to be completed in late 2019 and will be up and running sometime in 2020.
