Retailer Marks & Spencer has announced it is relocating its central Birmingham store to the city's Bullring shopping centre.
The shop is currently based in High Street but the company has agreed a deal to take the huge unit previously occupied by Bullring anchor tenant
The move is expected to complete in late 2022 or early 2023 with all 150 staff relocating to the new shop which will sell clothes and homewares and have a food hall, across the lower two of the unit's four floors.
The High Street store will remain trading as per usual in the meantime and close once the relocation has completed.
