Hays Travel is set to open its latest store next week as the UK’s largest independent agency soft launches its Briggate branch in Leeds city centre.
The shop will welcome customers from Tuesday (5 December) followed by an official opening ceremony on 11 January.
Located opposite the city’s Victoria Quarter shopping arcade and the Harvey Nichols department store, the branch will be Hays Travel’s ninth in and around Leeds.
Hays already has stores in The Merrion Centre, Leeds White Rose and Leeds Crossgate shopping centres, plus locations in the suburbs of Horsforth, Garforth, Rothwell, Pudsey and Morley.
The branch, which will create 10 new jobs and be managed by Shaun Moremon, will open its doors in the same week Hays makes its debut on the cobbled streets of Coronation Street’s Weatherfield.
Jenny Brooks, Hays Travel divisional sales manager, said: “The soft launch event will showcase our offer, gather feedback from customers, and guarantee that our operations run smoothly. This approach will ensure we are ready to offer our customers the exceptional service that Hays Travel is known for.
“We have been holding out for a store in the heart of Leeds for years and are proud that Hays Travel’s continued growth means we are now opening in this prime location.”
