Asian fashion retailer Janan has submitted plans to expand its Bradford headquarters into a flagship department store. The company, which operates 10 stores across the UK, says the expansion is necessary to accommodate increasing demand and maintain its base in the city.
The proposal includes a large side extension to the existing Shearbridge Road site, adding more storage and retail space, focusing on menswear. Without the expansion, the company may need to relocate its headquarters outside Bradford.
Janan, founded in 2011, specialises in high-end Indian and Pakistani fashion and has built a strong national presence, with a significant social media following. The company says the expansion reinforces Bradford’s role as a key hub for Asian fashion retail.
The development also includes an increase in parking spaces from 35 to 50. A decision on the planning application is expected in May.
