FASHION retailer H&M has been confirmed as the latest High Street name sign up for a store for Bradford's Westfield Broadway.

The firm's 23,000 sq ft store will extend over three levels at the city centre site.

It joins retailers including Next, River Island, Top Shop, New Look and JD in signing up at the complex, scheduled to open before December this year.

A H&M spokesman said: "We are delighted to be opening our first store in Bradford and believe this is an exciting opportunity to expand our brand.

"Our store will offer fantastic fashion and quality clothing at the best price."

Keith Mabbett, director of leasing, said: "As a global retailer, H&M adds to the impressive list of stores that have already signed up to the scheme.

"In earlier surveys, H&M was one of the most requested retailers by Bradford shoppers and we are very pleased to deliver H&M to the city.

"Momentum for the development continues to grow, with more than 65 per cent of the centre’s floor space already committed, and as work continues to progress, we expect to build on this as more brands sign up to the scheme in the coming months."
