Hotel Chocolat has been looking for a suitable site in Halifax with the luxury chocolatier hinting on numerous occasions they are looking to open a shop in the town.

In July last year Angus Thirlwell, co-founder and chief executive, said: “We’ve opened in the York Designer Outlet and that is doing really well.

“We are still looking in Halifax and Huddersfield and we are gradually homing in. It’s really important we get the best locations.
