H-E-B named America's 4th favorite grocery store
H-E-B WINS: The Texas grocery chain easily beat out big stores like Walmart, Randalls and Kroger, a new survey reveals.

As far as grocery stores are concerned, Texans are apparently pretty lucky to have access to an H-E-B.

According to a new report, the Texas grocery chain not only beats out big stores like Walmart, Randalls and Kroger, but places fourth out of 56 chains from across the country.

Customer data science company Dunnhumby says the grocery stores were ranked on eight different values, including price, quality, digital shopping experiences, operations, convenience, discounts and speed of service.

Nearly 7,000 U.S. households were surveyed in January 2019, leading to H-E-B's ranking as America's 4th favorite grocery store.
