Retail Growth in Seguin: A New Era of Shopping, Dining & Community

Seguin is more than just a place to live — it’s a dynamic and fast‑growing city poised for the next chapter of retail excellence. Having grown by nearly 32% since 2020, Seguin is now one of the fastest‑growing cities in the Austin–San Antonio region.
With that growth comes rising demand for strong retail and dining options right here at home. For years, many residents traveled outside the city for major shopping trips. Today, Seguin is changing that — bringing top‑tier national retailers, local favorites, and new destinations closer to you.

🏬 Spotlight: Seguin Crossing

One of the most exciting developments is the upcoming Seguin Crossing retail center. Situated at I‑10 Frontage Road & Jay Road, this 14‑acre, 135,000‑square‑foot project marks the city’s largest retail build in decades.
The project features prominent tenants such as Hobby Lobby, Five Below, and James Avery, alongside additional national retail brands.
This development underscores Seguin’s commitment to providing diverse, convenient shopping options for both residents and visitors — and positioning our city as a key retail destination in Central Texas.

🛒 New Storefronts & Local Favorites

In addition to major retail centers, Seguin is welcoming a range of new storefronts and local business expansions:

• Hobby Lobby – $5.2M investment, 55,000 sq ft of craft and home goods

• IHOP + Applebee’s – The first dual-branded location in the U.S., opening in Seguin

• Retail Infill Projects – Expanding options along the SH‑46 corridor
