B&M shops: Another sign B&M could be shutting one of its Halifax stores and moving it to a new home
B&M could be shutting one of its Halifax town centre stores and opening a new branch at different premises.
The Courier reported earlier this month how a planning application had been submitted by the well-known discount retailer to Calderdale Council for what used to be Tesco Express at 25 Westgate House, on Market Street in Halifax town centre.
The firm has applied for permission for signs and graphics at the property, which has been empty since Tesco closed its store there in 2022.
Now the Courier has learned that B&M’s current town centre premises – at Unit 1 Horton Street – has gone up for rent.
According to its listing on property website Rightmove, Unit 1 Horton Street is being advertised with estate agents Savills and is a 10,000 square foot premises.
It also has access to 112 car parking spaces.
B&M has another store at Shay Syke.
The Courier has contacted B&M for a response.
