Our Values
Service:
At H-E-B, we believe grocery shopping is more than an errand. That’s why it’s our pledge to always go above and beyond. Here, we think like the customer, not about the customer.
Heart:
People matter. Here, people are at the heart of every decision made and everything we do – no store cares more.
Drive:
Competition drives us, but collaboration defines us. A shared spirit drives us to work together and build a company that doesn’t just meet the Customer’s needs, it exceeds them.
Innovation:
We’re continuously searching for ways to serve our Partners, Customers, and Communities better and make their lives easier. Here, we are relentlessly dissatisfied with the present.
Community:
We make it a priority to get involved and make a difference in the lives of our friends and neighbors, because we believe communities should be better off by us having been there.
Here, we don’t need an audience to act with integrity. Because we believe you don’t need permission to do the right thing.
H-E-B's Spirit of Giving
For more than 100 years, our commitment and involvement in the community has been an important part of the way we do business. We're proud to support initiatives like the H‑E‑B Food Bank Assistance Program, our annual Feast of Sharing holiday dinners, and the Spirit of H‑E‑B trailer that provides on‑site relief in areas devastated by natural disasters.
It's our way of saying thank you for allowing us to be your neighbor. We call it H‑E‑B's Spirit of Giving. In this spirit, we have contributed five percent of pre‑tax earnings to public and charitable programs since the 1930s.
