GROCERY SERVICES, INC.

Grocery Services, INC. is a privately funded renovation project located at 1007 East Houston Street in Cleveland, Texas. The work involves a 2,833 sq ft grocery store alteration owned by AKA 2 Real Estate Holdings. The estimated cost for this specific scope is $100,000.

According to the TDLR filing, construction was scheduled to begin in February 2026 with a completion date of March 2026. Plan review for the project was completed in May 2026. Although the scheduled completion date has passed, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation has not yet recorded a final inspection. Therefore, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record.

Project Economics and Scope

The estimated cost of $100,000 translates to approximately $35 per square foot. This figure is below the county median of $87 per square foot for similar renovation and alteration filings in Houston County. The total estimated cost is also below the median of $270,000 for projects of this type in the region.

The scheduled build window for this project was 28 days, which is shorter than the county median of 119 days for comparable work. The project is registered under the accessibility specialist Janel Carona Bloom. The scope is strictly limited to the renovation of the grocery store facility as described in the filing.

Local Context

The site is situated in ZIP code 77327, an area with a population of about 37,574 people according to U.S. Census estimates. The median household income in this area is $57,538. Nearby businesses include a Walgreens drugstore, Southside Bank, and the Austin Memorial Library. The Houston County unemployment rate was 5.2 percent in July 2026.

This project is a one-off renovation on private land for private use. It does not represent a chain expansion or a new construction build. The record reflects a specific alteration to an existing structure rather than a new development. The status remains pending final inspection confirmation by TDLR.
