The chain, which has a couple of other spots in North Texas, officially opened on Thursday at a sizable spot that covers over 140,000 square feet, according to a release. It\u2019s located between Interstate 35E and Harry Hines Boulevard on Royal Lane.<\/p>\n<h2>Unique Offerings<\/h2>\n<p>The lineup includes green papaya, taro, durian and red bananas, along with seafood in large tanks that cover everything from live Korean octopus and abalone to crab. There are staples and specialty items and much more. But it\u2019s not just the food that\u2019s atypical of some grocers. Large screens play music videos above the items, including the produce area, with it recently featuring A20 May, a Chinese pop girl group. An area with several restaurants offers Korean fried chicken, Korean tofu and barbecue offerings and Japanese katsu, among others.<\/p>\n<h2>D-FW Retail News<\/h2>\n<p>The latest on retail openings, closings and trends in D-FW.

For example, the region is adding several sites that cater to the South Asian community, including India Bazaar. Plano and Carrollton are home to H Mart stores, and another is slated for the Fort Worth area. The new store in Dallas is tapping into a healthy customer base that goes beyond its existing locations, according to Brian Kwon, president of the chain.<\/p>\n<h2>Customer Base and Expansion<\/h2>\n<p>The company\u2019s customer base is diversifying with about 60% being Asian, indicating the wide appeal it has for all shoppers, Kwon said. \u201cThere\u2019s no question about how well the store will do here, just because (of) the demand we\u2019re seeing from our customers, the response we\u2019re seeing from the local community,\u201d Kwon said in an interview. H Mart started during the 1980s in the New York City area and has since grown to more than 100 stores across over 15 states.<\/p>\n<h2>Products and Services<\/h2>\n<p>At the new store in Dallas, shoppers will find rice and sweet treats along with snacks from different backgrounds, including Korean, Indian and Chinese. There is also kimchi, marinated chicken and raspberry wine.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"aspect-ratio:190 \/ 127\" class=\"dmnc_features-article-body-embeds-subject-tag-list-with-images-list-with-images-module__6H-hI dmnc_images-modern-image-module__QFaG- max-w-full h-auto text-white dmnc_images-modern-image-module__9Zlll bg-gray-light object-contain\" width=\"190\" height=\"127\" src=\"https:\/\/dmn-dallas-news-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/v2\/WEWTDBRFMFAHLOOWNXM7XSYXUA.jpg?auth=b919dd250a5dc587690ceedd019f6949a0ff263c636cdad7ecadf581b9c95c03&#038;quality=80&#038;height=127&#038;width=190&#038;smart=true\" alt=\"FILE - A person walks towards a Target store, July 15, 2025, in Nashville, Tenn.
