BOLD plans have been unveiled to revitalise Warrington’s Hatters Row shopping centre.
The borough council plans to transform the two-storey shopping arcade of Horsemarket Street into a specialist wedding and lifestyle centre.
Retail units will be made available for a rent free period of up to one year to new tenants who don’t want to be tired to a long-term lease agreement.
The council is seeking a good mix of experienced businesses and new start-ups via a “Dragon’s Den” style selection process.
Cllr Mike Hannon, deputy leader of the borough council said: “This council is committed to encouraging new businesses and revitalising the town centre, which is why we are launching this new initiative.
“We believe that making Hatters Row into a wedding and lifestyle centre will create a new identity and make it more commercially viable for the future.”
Anyone interested in registering interest in one of the vacant units or in finding out more should contact Paul Blaney at Warrington Market office on 01925 632571 or [email protected]
The new look Hatters wedding and lifestyle centre will be launched in May.
