==History==
In 1872, Henry Henke, a grocer from New Orleans, Louisiana, visited Houston to try to establish a new chain. In 1882, Henke asked Camille G. Pillot to become the company bookkeeper; a few years later, Pillot became a full partner in the firm. In 1925, the chain had two stores, one at 302 Milam in what is now Downtown Houston, and the other in what is now Midtown Houston. In May 1955, The Kroger Company acquired Henke & Pillot.〔 Henke's logo soon was changed to look similar to the Kroger logo. In 1956, the chain operated 27 stores, with locations in Greater Houston (Houston, Galveston, Pasadena, and Velasco) and the Beaumont-Port Arthur area (Beaumont, Port Arthur, and Orange). In 1965 it had its corporate headquarters in Houston and 20 stores in the Greater Houston area (Houston, Seabrook, and South Houston); one of its Houston stores was in Meyerland Plaza. In 1966, Kroger announced that it was expanding its presence in Greater Houston and that it would retire the Henke & Pillot name. The chain was six years short of its 100th anniversary.〔
