Optimism for retail sector

THE outlook for the retail sector in Yorkshire remains optimistic, despite the sluggish economy, according to the latest retail research by global property consultancy Knight Frank.

The opening of the £350m Trinity Leeds this week, which is 
already 90 per cent let, will provide 
a major boost for Yorkshire 
retailing.

Dan Hyde, retail specialist with Knight Frank in Yorkshire, said: “Obviously Trinity Leeds is grabbing the headlines, and rightly so, but there are other retail success stories in Yorkshire too.

“Taken together, the stories provide evidence that the retail sector in Yorkshire is fighting back.”
