A former city centre betting shop will be transformed into a Nisa store after the owner was granted an off-sales licence by the council.
The convenience store, which will be situated at 228 Hope Street, “bucks the trend” of recent shop closures and will offer a number of services including alcoholic beverages, coffee and lottery and post office facilities.
The applicant Khalid Javed, who has invested more than £200,000 in the shop which will create 13 jobs, appeared before the licensing board on Friday morning.
