THREE new shops will be coming to The Broadway in Bradford this Christmas.

Retailers Jack & Jones, Muffin Break and Ramsdens will be creating a total of 33 new jobs in the city centre shopping centre.

Along with the recent additions of sports store Lids and American footwear brand Sketchers, it takes the total number of new leases at the centre in 2022 to seven.

And The Broadway aims to bring further retailers to increase that figure before the end of the year.

Ian Ward, general manager at The Broadway, said: “As the festive period approaches I’m delighted to announce a host of new retailers that have signed leases and will be open ready for seasonal shopping. 

“Notably, The Broadway is continuing to attract new retailers to the city as we welcome Muffin Break and Jack & Jones.

"Ensuring that The Broadway brings new and exciting retailers to Bradford is a huge priority.

"As the city gears up for the City of Culture 2025 and with transformational plans underway all over the city now is the time for Bradford to step up and really showcase what a dynamic city it is.”
