After a year of frustration for independents across the country, North West property developer The Heaton Group is looking to support a local business with a fully fitted out premises on King Street in the centre of Stretford.

The 3,416 sq ft unit is below 13 apartments that The Heaton Group sold last year and adjacent to Stretford Mall.

Called The Bank, the building was home to Stretford Conservative Club for many years before its conversion to retail premises and later a bank. Since the bank closed in 2016, the site has stood empty but now it is set to have new life breathed into it the 13 luxury apartments, as well as the large commercial unit on ground level.

With Stretford about to benefit from huge investment and regeneration, it’s the perfect opportunity for someone who is looking at being at the centre of the action and surrounded by other independents such as the successful Stretford Food Hall.

Speaking about the site, managing director of The Heaton Group, said: “With the regeneration of the Mall and everything that is planned to regenerate Stretford, it’s a great time to get involved. If you’re an independent retailer or have ideas for a co-work space and bring something different to the town, it could be for you.”
