Harrogate’s upmarket James Street is set to get a new addition this week with the opening of an Oliver Bonas shop.
The fashion and lifestyle brand has been refurbishing the spacious 3,700-square foot unit formerly used as a discount store.
Next also previously rented the site.
The doors were previously expected to open in September but renovations have been ongoing.
However, sources have indicated Oliver Bonas is finally due to open on Thursday.
The company, which has 85 stores in the UK, is advertising for team members at £9.75 an hour on its website.
The opening will strengthen James Street’s claim to be Harrogate’s premier destination for luxury goods.
Pret A Manger, Ebru Evrim and Carl Scarpa have all joined the street recently and Hotel Chocolat has upsized to larger premises.

“Oliver Bonas will be a great addition to the existing tenant line up on James Street which truly is one of the best high streets in the north of England.”
