Iceland are opening a new store in Halifax.

The store will be based at 43-45 Market Street and will be housed in a former Poundland store.

The new Iceland store will create 25 new jobs.

Chris Wakefield at Kames, the fund manager on behalf of Scottish Equitable, said: "Scottish Equitable are very pleased to have been able to agree a ten year  lease with  Iceland, a  strong and highly regarded  retailer with a very  competitive offer.  Their presence on Market Street will undoubtedly enhance the retail pitch and act as a draw to shoppers from the much wider area."
