Hays Travel branch to ‘open’ on Coronation Street

A Hays storefront will join the businesses shown around the world’s longest running soap’s fictional setting of Weatherfield as part of a new product placement partnership.

Further details and an opening date for the new shop’s first appearance on the programme “will be announced later”, Hays said.

Dame Irene Hays, owner and chair of Hays Travel, said the agency was excited to be opening on the cobbles of Coronation Street.

Jason Spencer, business development director at ITV, added: “As a family-run business that’s been around almost as long as Coronation Street itself, we’re looking forward to welcoming Hays Travel to Weatherfield. We’re excited to be working with Dame Irene and the Hays team.”
