Javaid is in the process of rebranding the forecourt to Murco and plans on rebranding the convenience store to the Londis symbol group.

James Moore-Martin, director of Christie & Co’s retail team, said: “I am extremely delighted for the landlord of the site Sohel Patel, as we secured a new long-term lease to an experienced and well invested new tenant who plans on fully renovating the site.

“We received interest and offers from an abundance of different parties from across the UK and after carefully vetting all parties and discussing their potential plans for the site, we agreed a deal to Saqib who is already in the midst of significant works on site.”
