AN East End shop is hoping to serve up a fresh look by extending its premises. 

Bosses at Noor Food Store, at 589 Gallowgate, want to takeover a neighbouring lot and add a hot food takeaway. 

The shop, which specialises in Halal-certified produce, has grown in popularity since opening just last year.

In planning documents submitted to Glasgow City Council, agent Keith Edwards Architect wrote: “The existing premises is a single-storey shop which was formerly part of the ground floor shops below a three-storey tenement, which has now been removed.” 

“The proposal is for the extension of one shop into the next door premises, 587, and be part of the main shop.

“There is one wall to be removed which is the separating wall and is non-load bearing. 

“The floor between the two properties is to be made good with concrete.” 

The document added: “The formerly empty shop walls are to be stripped and lined with timber frame.

“The existing property has class 3 category and this is to be extended to cover the new extended premises.” 

Council chiefs will now consider the application. Comments can be submitted by visiting the planning website and using the reference 21/01089/FUL. 

A decision is expected in September.
