Leeds-based property investor and car parking operator, Town Centre Securities PLC (TCS) has secured two new lettings, totalling over 4,300 sq ft, at its Vicar Lane scheme which sits in a prime location between Victoria Quarter and Victoria Gate in Leeds City Centre.

Creating 5 new jobs, Nomad (a collaboration between quality men’s fashion retailer, Arnold & Co and women’s fashion and jewellery brand Say Paloma) will occupy a 3,653 sq ft unit to the basement, ground and first floors at 84-86 Vicar Lane and joins an established line up of high end fashion retailers at Vicar Lane including designer retro brand We are Cow and Flannels.

Hairitage Ltd is the realisation of Northern Iraq-born Ako Abdullah who has worked with some of the most prestigious barber shops in West Yorkshire over the past 20 years.

Ako Abdullah commented; “The opening of my new venue on Eastgate is a dream come true and I believe the location close to the prestigious Victoria Quarter along with the expertise of our barbering team and great levels of service will be key to its success”.
