United Supermarkets groundbreaking

The United Family broke ground June 16 on a new United Supermarkets store and fuel station at the corner of Hobbs Highway and 21st Street in Seminole, Texas.

The 49,000‑square‑foot location will replace the current store in the market and is slated to open in 2027.

“We are thrilled to announce a new United Supermarkets in Seminole,” said Sidney Hopper, president of The United Family.

“It is always exciting to break ground on a new store, but this one is special because we know it will bring an enhanced grocery shopping experience in a larger footprint to a community that has already supported us for a long time. We love Seminole and our team can’t wait to open the doors to this beautiful new building.”

The store will offer a full‑service pharmacy with drive‑through, mobile grocery ordering with pickup and delivery, a fresh in‑store bakery, full‑service floral with delivery, and a full‑service meat counter. Expanded services include a full‑service deli with hot foods, ReadyMeals and a dining area. The addition of a United Express fuel station will allow customers to redeem rewards points for up to $1 off per gallon.

“We are proud to welcome this new, larger United Supermarkets grocery store, and we are especially grateful to the Seminole Economic Development Corporation board members for their hard work and dedication in making this vision a reality,” said Mayor Chet Clark.

“It keeps our dollars local, strengthens our economy and improves our quality of life.”

Kevin Petty, president of the Seminole Economic Development Corporation, commented, “We are proud and honored that United Supermarkets has decided to expand its footprint in Seminole. We are excited that this will bring additional products and services for the consumers and provide employment opportunities for those in our community.”
