A NEW food store in Bradford city centre has applied for a licence to sell alcohol.

Euro Max is based at North Brook Street - in a unit that was previously a Lexus dealership.

The building, just off Shipley Airedale Road and a short distance from Forster Square rail station, had been empty for much of the past decade, although it was recently occupied by Safe Glaze UK.

That company went into administration in 2018.

The building has since been sub-divided and is now known as North Brook Street Works.

A car repair shop, RV Autos, occupies one unit, with Euro Max, an Eastern European speciality food store, occupying another.

The company behind the Euro Max, Vilnius & LM Ltd has applied to Bradford Council for a licence to sell alcohol at the shop between 10am and 10pm.
