FIVE jobs have been created with the opening of a new store in the Airedale Shopping Centre in Keighley.

Roman’s latest outlet is in addition to one it already operates within Beales.

Centre manager Steve Seymour (pictured) said the opening was the latest in a series of boosts for the mall, which has seen a business boom.

“We are continuing to create jobs as we attract new businesses – such as Trespass and Peacocks – while our present ones are seeking to expand where they can,” Mr Seymour said.

“For example, Fulton Foods recently tripled in size.

“It is all part of our commitment to improving the great range of stores we have on offer here, including Next, JD Sports, Bon Marche, Burger King and Clarks, plus a wide variety of independent traders.

“In addition Beales, which will continue to stock Roman, is one of the most respected department store chains in the UK.”
