AN independent Kendal clothing and salon business will begin operating under one roof.

Maya Maya, which was previously split over two units in Blackhall Yard, will now be in two storey premises in Wainwright's Yard.

The owners of the decade old business are hoping to secure 10 more years of success by bringing it all under one roof.

Amanda Slattery, who owns Maya Maya with her husband Steve, said she cannot believe how much the business has grown.

"Whilst we managed very well operating out of split sites, it will be great to have the extra space to develop the business and have everything under one roof," she said. "It’s testament to our loyal customers who have supported us through thick and thin that we are in a position to make this move.

"I can’t thank them enough for sticking with us. It’s very exciting and we hope to continue to be a success story for the town."

The move also means that new staff will be needed and Amanda is currently looking for a fourth person to join the team.

The shop officially opens on June 25 and there will be a launch event from 10.30am to 4.30pm.
