Staff Reports

H-E-B has expanded its temporary hours of operation at stores across Texas until further notice.

On Monday, the company started opening their stores at 7 AM and closing at 10 PM.

“With an improving supply chain and stronger product availability, our stores have the capacity to serve more customers throughout the day while providing the products they want at our everyday low prices,” HEB said. “Along with our new hours, we continue to ease product limits on many items and customers will start to notice many popular departments reopen, such as our bakery, deli and floral departments.”

Most H-E-B Pharmacies will continue to operate from 8 AM to 8 PM and their normal weekend hours.

Currently, all Joe V’s Smart Shop locations are open daily from 7 AM – 10 PM.

Starting Monday, April 27, Central Market stores will change their store hours to 8 AM to 10 PM and Mi Tienda locations will update store hours to 7 AM to 10 PM.

“Our top priority remains protecting the health and safety of our Partners and customers. Even with our extended hours, our stores remain diligent in following H-E-B’s strict hygiene and sanitation measures as well as proper social distancing protocols,” HEB said. “We have dedicated teams of Partners and COVID Action Managers who are trained to ensure sanitation and social distancing procedures are properly followed. All Partners in customer-facing roles are required to wear masks. This includes Partners in all parts of our business that are in close contact as well as vendors.”

Additional protective measures include Plexiglass partitions at all check stands, metered entry into stores, crowd control guidelines to manage customer traffic, deep cleaning and sanitizing of stores and hard surfaces as well as fuel stations throughout the day, and contactless H-E-B Curbside and Home Delivery to limit direct interaction.

“As we continue to monitor the spread of the pandemic, we are following guidance and advice from medical professionals and the CDC to make the best decisions regarding the health and safety of our Partners, customers and the communities we serve,” the company said.
