Bring H-E-B to Hunt County Texas


Bring H-E-B to Hunt County Texas
The Issue
Greenville & Hunt County!!!
Who is tired of Walmart?? Who wants another option without driving 30+ minutes for it?!?! (with the rising gas prices, I know I would!)
Greenville/Hunt County has a lack of options for shopping and jobs as the county and city population grows. It is time this area expands to fit the need. This isn't to try and make Greenville a "big city"....this is to try and make Greenville more of a sustainable town that supports its community and its needs.
Bringing H-E-B (a well loved Texas and Butt family owned and run company) to Hunt County will open up fantastic job opportunities and promote local economic growth as it would bring shoppers in from surrounding areas (being the only H-E-B in the immediate area). In comparison to another small town, Alice Texas, this grocery store THRIVES. It is a top 10 private company after all.
H-E-B would compete with Walmart with it's size, wide variety as well as its low prices. The store also sources the majority of its beef and dairy from Texas.
Another benefit for potential workers, H-E-B has an employee stock ownership program which has given 15% of the company to its employees. The Butt family are champions for education in Texas as well as the well being of its communities.
There are many more amazing things to say about H-E-B...but for now, we'll say this.... Bring HUNT COUNTY H-E-B!!!
