June 06, 2024 – H-E-B recently announced the opening of a new e-commerce fulfillment center in Cibolo, Texas, to support curbside and home delivery orders throughout Cibolo, New Braunfels and surrounding cities around the San Antonio area.
The 55,000-square-foot facility marks H-E-B’s eighth e-commerce fulfillment center the company has opened since 2018 and features AutoStore empowered by Swisslog and operating on synchronized intelligence from Swisslog’s SynQ software. The most recent of these facilities was opened in Plano, Texas in July 2023.
Five members of the Swisslog team attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the opening of the facility and showcase the ongoing partnership between the two companies. Swisslog continues to help H-E-B achieve their automated fulfillment goals and provide unmatched service and support to their communities.
