The fast food company, which has hundreds of branches throughout the UK, has lodged plans with Kirklees Council to open a new store on Cheapside in vacant premises next to the RSPCA store.

If the proposals get the go-ahead, it would create 28 jobs with ten of those full-time and 18 part-time.

In the application, Domino’s say that “the proposal will encourage the beneficial reuse of a vacant unit within the town centre.”

The unit has been vacant since March this year.

The nearest Domino’s is located in Heckmondwike.

A decision on the proposals is expected by early January.
