Evie’s Snacks Launches in 100 H-E-B Locations Across Texas
PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Evie Ackerley for Evie’s Snacks
HOUSTON, TX (SEPTEMBER 2026) — Evie’s Snacks, a farm-direct pecan snack brand, has launched in 100 H-E-B locations across Texas. The Houston-based brand brings three roasted pecan flavors – Sweet & Salty, Cinnamon Churro, and Brown Butter Rum – to the snack aisle.
Founded by husband and wife, Evie Ackerley and Colin Balickie, Evie’s Snacks makes roasted pecan snacks using nuts grown on the family’s farms in South Texas. The H-E-B launch significantly expands the brand’s retail presence in its home state.
“I grew up shopping at H-E-B, so seeing Evie’s on those shelves is such a full-circle moment,” said Evie Ackerley, co-founder of Evie’s Snacks. “When Colin and I started Evie’s, we wanted to share the pecans grown on our family farms in South Texas with more people. Bringing them to the store I grew up shopping at makes this launch especially meaningful.”
The family-owned business is vertically-integrated; growing the pecans they use and then roasting and packaging in-house. The H-E-B debut follows the brand’s expansion into Target stores across the South and Southeast and its nationwide rollout at Sprouts earlier this year.
“I’m incredibly proud of our small team for making this launch happen,” Ackerley added. “We’re grateful to our buyer, Bryan Wolfe, and the H-E-B team for caring about our story and supporting a local brand.”
Participating stores can be found through the Evie’s Snacks store locator.
