Menswear independent Brook Taverner has opened its second Yorkshire based store this weekend, just four months after its debut into the county in Beverley.  The new store at 174 High Street, Northallerton will allow Brook Taverner to trade from 2,100 sq ft and showcase the full menswear collection for Autumn Winter 2019.

Jason Scott, Managing Director, commenting on his brand’s ability to buck nationwide high street trends, states: “We opened our first Yorkshire store in Beverley in June, and we have been delighted with the response.  Northallerton has been at the top of our list of targets for a number of years, so when a suitable site became available, it was an easy decision to open our second store in such a discerning and prosperous town”.

SPACE continue to assist Brook Taverner and are seeking further stores to open in the second half of 2020.
