A new grocery store is headed to Austin's Harris Branch area, with construction expected to begin at the end of this month and the doors potentially opening by spring 2027. Daily Fresh Market is planned for a spot in Parmer Commons, right next to the Shops at Parmer Lane development in the North Austin/Manor area.
The new grocer is expected to open at 5851 1/2 E Parmer Ln, Building 2, Suite 300, according to WhatNow. The outlet reports the address sits in Parmer Commons, directly adjacent to the Shops at Parmer Lane development, placing the future store squarely in the Harris Branch pocket of North Austin.
The location sits in a part of Austin that has grown quickly: the city’s Imagine Austin progress report found high population growth in the Harris Branch area from 2010 to 2020. The city’s plan aims to focus development in centers. That growth provides a broader backdrop for new neighborhood retail along the Parmer Lane corridor. Austin’s Imagine Austin Year 10 report identifies the area’s population growth.
Construction Timeline and Project Scope
Per the filed permit, construction on the project is planned to start at the end of November 2026 and is slated to wrap up at the end of March 2027. The build carries an estimated $150,000 price tag, and the finished store is planned to span 5,038 square feet, the report notes.
If the estimated $150,000 construction project stays on track, the new 5,038-square-foot store should open by next spring, per the same account. That timeline hinges on permitting and construction proceeding without delay, which is standard caveat territory for any project still in its early building phase.
Owner Listed on Permit Has Yet to Respond
At the helm of the opening is Daily Fresh Market owner Premkumar Shrestha, who was listed on the permit. The outlet reached out to Shrestha for more information about the store and its opening but did not hear back from him by the time of publication.
As of now, Daily Fresh Market does not yet have a website or social media pages, leaving details like product selection, hours, or a firmer opening date unconfirmed. Harris Branch shoppers will have to wait for more official word as the project moves from permitting into construction over the coming months.
A nearby example of the region’s grocery expansion came in Manor, where H-E-B opened its first store on Oct. 22, 2025. At more than 101,000 square feet, that location is far larger than the planned 5,038-square-foot Daily Fresh Market, making the two projects different in scale as well as location. The Manor opening is a recent comparison for grocery development east of Austin, but details about Daily Fresh Market’s offerings and role in the local market remain unconfirmed. H-E-B’s announcement of the Manor store opening puts that project’s size and date in context.
